“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
