He has been for a long while now. His family are heavily involved in the sport and have numerous trainers. He took it up proper to fight his depression problems. Not seen him fight but heard he is half decent.
His Dad was European champ and his uncle is 3-time world champ, Duke. Saw Leon fight at York Hall before xmas and he was maybe lucky to get a draw against a decent opponent. Too late for him to have an impact in boxing but he's clearly serious about it and knows his way around the ring. Good luck to him.
If anyone is interested next weeks Buncey's Boxing Podcast will feature a round table discussion with Leon and Clinton. May also be on Boxnation as there's often a lot of crossover
