Bernard Fernandez: Sugar Ray Jr. gets set for celebrity boxing match
IF THERE WERE a world sanctioning body rating the cutest kids to get television face time in the 1980s, you'd have to figure Ray Leonard Jr. would have been no worse than No. 3, a stern challenger to sitcom stars Emmanuel Lewis ("Webster") and Gary Coleman ("Diff'rent Strokes").
Leonard, son of boxing superstar Sugar Ray Leonard, was pinch-his-cheeks adorable in that 7UP commercial in which he "trained" alongside his father, shadowboxing while flashing the same megawatt smile that made his dad one of the world's most marketable athletes.
