Benny Leiner, to give him his
real name, began boxing profes-
sionally at the age OF seventeen
years in 1912. In his first year,
meeting tough little fellows
around the New York clubs, he
knocked out thirteen opponents.
Joe Shugrue put him away in
four rounds that year.
In 1918 Leonard, the name he
had taken for his ring activities,
was stopped by frankie Fleming
in five rounds, but he knocked
out three other lads, thus max
ing the count in his favor.
Leonard's seven-round kayo
victory over Tommy Houck in
1914 brought him at a bound be-
fore the public eye. Sport
writer's began to mention him
now and then. His stock seemed
on the up and up.
In 1915 Leonard gained real
fame by stopping Joe Mandot, of
New Orleans, in seven rounds
Mandot had q good reputation
and q victory over him meant

important victory that year was
