    Hope he pulls through. I hung out with him and Cory at a fight in St. Louis once. Both guys were super nice. A fan walked up and asked Leon if he liked Ali and Leon answered "Yeah I liked him but not enough to let him kick my ass." :jaja-no:

    definitley! good and innocent looking boy right after his 23rd birthday. must have been around the time he decided to turn pro. just 4 months after, he made his 1st pro fight in january 1977.
    note the gold medal around his neck from the montreal summer olympics just 2 months before!

    mesmerizing: (watching an aging ali) leon´s eyes are looking right into his not too distant future.
