BOXING LESSONS

Many do not know Sugar Ray as a family man but rather as an ex-superstar boxer. Speaking about the long-term effects of boxing, the former professional boxer had a lot to say, such as:

"Boxing for me kept me off the streets, kept me away from drugs for as long as it could. My life has been blessed because of boxing."

Continuing, Sugar Ray expressed that boxing, what he termed as a sport for the disenfranchised, assisted him in buying his parents' home. Going on, he said that it helped him to give back to a lot of individuals.

Sugar Ray's marriage to Bernadette is not the first, having divorced ex-wife Juanita Wilkinson via a heated dispute. However, it appears that both of them ended up happy, Wilkinson eventually marrying again to another athlete, Otis Nixon.
