Sugar Ray Leonard Quotes:
Ocupation: Professional Boxer
Life: b. May 17, 1956
Birthday: May 17
When I was 15 or 16 and I started climbing up the ladder of success in amateur boxing, a reporter asked me, "What do you want to be?" I think he was expecting me to say, "A champion." I said, "I want to be special." I don't know why I said that, but I didn't just want to be a fighter. I wanted to have an impact with people, particularly kids.
