Ron Woodward:

Ron Woodward has been a boxing coach for 20 years. Ron had a successful amateur career and began coaching after his childern were grown. Ron and Molly started training together at the beginning of Molly's amateur career. Ron coached Molly to an impressive 10-0 as an amateur, then took time off to spend more time with his family. He rejoined Molly shortly after she turned pro in 2003. Ron's emphasis on the jab and solid basics, and his positive attitude are a great compliment to the teaching and instruction Leonard provides. What a great team!

“The key to being a great boxing coach isn’t just knowledge. Lots of people have knowledge of the sport. You have to have the ability to be a great teacher. You have to be able to connect with your students and communicate with them. The relationship between fighter and coach should be one of total trust. Leonard and ron are two of the kindest people I’ve ever known. they go out of their way to connect with people and make everyone their friend. I’ve grown to trust them completely, which is imperative in the ring. Aside from their amazing knowledge of the sport, that’s what makes both of them such a great teachesr.” –Molly McConnell
