LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UPI) — Olympic gold medalist Sugar Ray Leonard ran his pro record to 5-0 Saturday night in a preliminary to the Ken Norton-Jimmy Young heavyweight fight when he stopped Mexican Augustin Estrada at 1:54 of the sixth round.
Leonard, 145, Palmer Park, Md., dropped the 139-pound Estrada with a left to the midsection in the fifth round and finished him off with a two-fisted assault in the sixth.
Leonard controlled the action all the way against the tough but over-matched Estrada, whose record fell to 21-18-2. [1]
