Benny Leonard was a wizard in the ring. There is very little footage that exists of Leonard. But what we have, shows a glimpse into the boxing brilliance of the Ghetto Wizard.
Accolades:
Widely considered one of the all-time greats, he was ranked 8th on The Ring magazine's list of the "80 Best Fighters of the Last 80 Years" and placed 7th in ESPN's "50 Greatest Boxers of All-Time".
In 2005, the International Boxing Research Organization ranked Leonard as the #1 lightweight, and #8 best pound-for-pound fighter of all-time.
Statistical website BoxRec rates Leonard as the 2nd best lightweight ever, while The Ring magazine founder Nat Fleischer placed him at #2.

This is the best boxing youtube channel ever
gravyfish Easily!
gravyfish 100% aggree
Yes this and HanZAgod the best channels
Beautiful! One of the best boxers of all time, his jab was a thing of beauty.
Look at the footwork from these guys from back in the day. The way they were able to get in and out with shots their explosiveness in general. I love how today all these strength & conditioning coaches out here are teaching all these crazy exercises and methods yet we rarely see anything like these men here in this video anymore. But yet we hear sports evolution this and that. Really makes you wonder
So you think all modern boxers all use the same 'crazy exercises'? Little bias there.
Baez Rivera your correct bro boxing has not evolved its digressed
Sorry but it’s just a fact that the majority of boxers are Better this these old folks no matter how great they were at the time
Reg Kray that’s definitely not true u guys are just a bunch of old decrepit bastards
@PJ Rivera nah not Tank Davis... were talking about the likes of Lomachenko and Teofimo Lopez
"What's a couple of hundred thousand when you have a couple of million?" savage
Keep On Punching! 🥊
Reznick bro pls music in the end ?
I love him hamming it up with Mickey Walker at 2:13. What a couple of great champions.
Stunning , absolutely stunning! It is a marvel on how you manage to bring something old and turn it into something absolutely amazing . A really well done job!
Yet another masterpiece of another masterful boxer from the old days. The last clip had me rollin lol
Reznick, you're a huge inspiration to me! Your work is so creative and unique. Benny Leonard was fast!
When it said "Ghetto Wizard", I imagined one an old black guy that spits wisdoms every fifteen seconds
There were many different ghettos in New York at the time. Benny was from a Jewish ghetto.
@@markanthony4546the word ghetto was literally invented for Jewish people
Greatest lightweight ever. And one of the top 10 or 15 fighters ever. He could do it all and he did it against the very best.
Duran would have sleeped this guy bro
@@Mr-ep2qi Really? How come?
@@Mr-ep2qiI'm not sure about that. Duran could get frustrated with a great boxer and Sugar Ray Leonard made him quit. Buchanan also gave Duran all kinds of trouble... And Buchanan was not a better boxer than Benny Leonard.
@@Jorge-ww9zy That was after Duran already beat tf out of sugar Ray bro learn about boxing Duran was fat asl partying before that sugar Ray fight and was over it
@@Mr-ep2qi learn about boxing? Lol
Sugar Ray made Duran quit. End of story. Duran also fought weaker opposition as a lightweight. Benny Leonard, in contrast, fought the best in what is considered the most competitive era in the lightweight division. Facts.
Your videos are absolutely amazing. You would be a fantastic documentary maker.
Best channel for boxing 🥊 hands down!!!
Yo, you finally uploaded it,haha!Been waiting for a Benny Leonard highlight to come out.Thanks rez!
Reznick is a fucking magician of film.
This is incredibly well done!! Amazing work
one of boxing's finest
Thanks for the video, REZNICK
The other guys who make boxing video's on you tube should pack it in.....Thanks Rez for all you do!
I really like this one, Great Job!!!
He was the Houdini of Boxing 🥊
Thanks for the video, Reznick
I've watched so many of your videos before I've had amateur fights man. Much love
Clicked the like button before watching the video. My man Reznick never disappoints!
Rez...this video Another great one.
Benny Leonard can't say I've ever seen him before ....now I know. thank you
Excellent work
That footage of him with Tendler is amazing.
The quip at the end is hilarious. Did you know 70% of standup comics in the U.S. are Jewish?
Outstanding! Keep it up.
another truly beautiful video from reznick, THANK YOU!
I have returned here several times over the years.
willy pep with punching power
Wow. Excellent defense and offense. I want to see more of Benny Leonard.👍👍👍👍
If African Americans had Sugar Ray Robinson, The Jewish had Benny Leonard
Ray Arcels favorite boxer !!
Benny Leonard and Roberto Duran are the two the best Lightweights imo, but idk who would win, prime vs prime.
You deserve millions Rez
This, like all your videos, is very well made and more people should know about Leonard. But all the footage in this vid is from his comeback when he was older and not in good shape. He had to fight again because of the stock market crises. But I guess unfortunately there is no footage of his prime out there.
Against Tendler he was in his prime .
i have a copy of his title defense against Tendler. He was amazing.
I love how this channel makes videos about the oldschool fighters and not these shit boxers from today,god bless you sir!
If today's fighters are so shit then why don't you get your pro license and fight them?
+Allfa FeNiX I'll believe it when I see it, go to your nearest boxing gym and start training. You'll see how tough it really is
William Henley im just saying that today boxer are shit compered to the old ones,you realy think that AJ,Wilder,Klitscko,Fury and others would stand a chance vs Ali,Fraizer,Foreman,Liston,Holmes,Joe Louis,Marciano,even Tyson,not a chance,they are all bums compered to these legends
not true, i´ts a sport, theres always someone out there improving new and harder skills...
Diego Villa Ontiveros lol skill?if you look at the way how AJ and Wilder are throwing punches you can see 0 skill,they only have power,while the old champions hed skill,stamina,speed and power,these suckers are just muscular and strong,beating fat\skiny unskilled bums,name me one guy that the current champ AJ beat and that he wasnt a bum,he only beat a 40y washed up klitscko,please...
Holy shitt this guy was so ahead of his time
He did have one hell of a nickname.
Good video. He was great. Masterful fighter from New York.
Reznick, these videos are fucking amazing!, please keep up the great work!
The only time this man ever lost a match was after he came out of retirement to box again XD
Les monstres sacrés du ring beny le sorcier du gettho
Wow I'm really impressed
Gentlemen please look at the scizzors Beeny is doing at 0 23....o my God how fast how perfect....i doubt anyone can do it these days
Big love for someone like Leonard.
Greatest epithet of all time
Grace under fire. Willie Pep of his time.
With power!
His boxrec says 89-6, but when you scroll down you’ll see way more losses (22 in total). How is this possible? And where does NWS stands for? Maybe you know why Reznick?
NWS stands for Newspaper-decision. Back in those times they used to have no-decision matches, where if the match went distance then the match was declared a draw. In the case of such matches, Boxrec finds different newspapers from the time of the match to see who the journalist of the time belived won these matches, but they don't count them for a boxers record since these newspapers obviously aren't always correct or sometimes are biased.
The newspaper losses, were some newspapers more or less likely to give a black or a Jewish fighter the loss? I remember that famous fight where there was the German fighter, I forget the name, he was a real hero.
In that time, you had baseball and boxing. Every newspaper had a boxing reporter that people trusted. The gamblers went by these to declare a winner and pay out bets. At that time, with the amount of fights these guys had, 22 loses was really not a big deal. You were bound to have bad nights and a few bad decisions. Greb had 16 loses and was probably the best ever. ( He also had 261 wins!)
Read about him back in the 60s
Trully one of the only Jewish people I really admire. Benny Leonard, but also Max Baer, make you see there are also good Jewish people
At least you can appreciate Jewish athletes.
Light on his feet unusual for then
Hi Reznick, what do you use for editing your boxing videos ?
Wonderful job, keep punchin !!
Benny Leonard and Roberto Duran are the two greatest lightweights THAT EVER LIVED. I could never pick one over the other.
That's a good call. I think you could probably put Joe Gans in there but I think Benny was just better than both. He beat everybody at a time when the competition was outrageous. He was one of the true masters!
I don’t think Benny was a better lightweight than Duran but to each his own
JRE?
My great grandfather shamus O’Brien fought Benny.
Man that’s awesome. fought one of the best lightweights to ever live.
Thanks for appreciating that. I think he had 3 fights total with him.
Incase u all don't know old school black and white video is not real life speed it is sped up video. To some I'm being captain obvious but there is really people out there that think these videos are actual speed
Smart man!
2.30 song ?
Hanging tree alternative mix
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 part of the American Mosaic
He must of been an inspiration to the Jewish community in his time.
Best ever!!!
People don't want to give white fighers like Leonard and heavywieight champion Gene Tunney credit for having the same fighting style as later fighters like Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali and Sugar Ray Leonard, but Leonard and Tunny were using that style way back in the 1920s, way before those fighters came up.
Larry Fine was fighting at the same time, and they would have fought, but Larry killed a guy in the ring and was so devastated by it that he never boxed again. Larry was an animal, in the mold of Roberto Duran, and would have put Leonard's lights out in three rounds.
There is no hard evidence that Larry was a PRO boxer and there is certainly no evidence he killed a man in the Ring. But just assume he did. What makes you think killing a no name fighter is going to get him in with Benny Leonard?
@@constantine7382 Larry was very well known in Chicago as a ferocious fighter. Benny Leonard said it was the hardest fight of his entire career, and that Larry broke three of his ribs in the first round. Jack Dempsey said he was the hardest hitting Bantamweight he'd ever seen, and Carmen Basilio said fighting Larry was like fighting a lion.
@@mwbright Where are you getting any of this?
@@mwbright By the way, I found the rumor that Larry had ONE pro fight but it isn't confirmed. I REALLY doubt if Leonard, Dempsey or Basilio EVER seen him fight. He certainly didn't fight Leonard or broke any of his ribs.
@@constantine7382 Ray Arcel trained Benny Leonard all the way up through to Roberto Duran. He said Larry Fine was a highly skilled technician of boxing, but was a ferocious, almost satanic slugger who could put an opponent down for the count with either hand. That's why so many so called "experts" said he wasn't skilled, just strong, but Ray Arcel said Larry was the only fighter Benny feared, because when he got in the ring, he was like a ferocious, almost Mr. Hyde like animal. He really liked to hurt people, until he decompressed working as one of The Three Stooges.
At the end 2:31 what is that short song bit from ?
It's a song from "The Hunger Games: The Mocking Jay"
Brian Robinson "The Hanging Tree" it's the song for Floyd's HL.
WHATS THE NAME OF THE SONG PLS
David Ariza it may be a bit late, But its the fallout 4 cinematic theme ( No voice )
his stance and style reminds me of mcgregor
He was grate
1/3 of champion prize fighters in the early 1900’s were Jewish!
