    "Sugar Ray Leonard", by James Haskins, 1991.
    although I never actually read it, it's gathering dust somewhere among other books.

    It's nothing very special, but then his story isn't particularly interesting. Just an OK kid from an OK home. It's neither strong nor weak on the boxing, standard stuff really.

    Couldn't be more in agreement about SRR bios, s87. The best of 'em rarely rise above Wikipedia.

    You stop worrying about other people's bio's and sort out your own, please.

    I'd like to get a bio on Jerry Quarry and one on Gerry Cooney.
