    Just a tick he does.

    Ticks by their definition are involuntary.

    He just does it.

    In my younger years, when I boxed (unsuccessfully for the most part) I would constantly adjust my protective cup. At first because was uncomfortable but I still did it after I upgraded. Funny thing, I still do it, even though I no longer wear a cup. Wish I picked up a less embarrassing habit like shaking my hand or something. People would just assume I had Parkinson’s and not point it out. Not sure about LSC, I was never a big fan after he ducked GRJ.

    Always assumed it was his thing he did.
    Anyone know if he does it during training?

    Meldrick Taylor & Gerald McCellan used to tap their trunks. Sometimes Meldrick would bring the hand up like he was preparing for a shot to come. Did it quite a bit vs McGirt.

    I've seen a few fighters do that as well. Shaking them like they got tight from holding em up.

    Jeff Chandler ( bantamweight from the 70's80's not the actor) used to shake one of his hands all the time.

    Darrin "Schoolboy" Van Horn used to scratch his left shoulder with his right hand...until Iran Barkley convinced him it wasn't a good idea.

    You might be right. I believe years back, during one of his fights, the commentator stated that he asked Leo about it and Leo told him he doesn't realize he does it.
