Sugar Ray Leonard and Wilfred Benitez brother in laws?

[Old Crow]

I've heard several times of these two beings brother in laws but never found anything to back it up.Has anyone else heard this and can someone prove or disprove? Thanks

[TonyGe]

No they aren't.
I'm sure it would have been mentioned in here. They did date and Leonard was OK with it.

[Old Crow]

Thank you .

I distinctly remember the announcers saying it the night of the fight, (which may or may not be its origin) but that doesn't mean ****, those guys are often wrong.

I remember they claimed for years the Ibragimovs were cousins. It turned out they weren't even related, just had the same last name.

The meat involved was Leonard's sis?

I vaguely recall that Leonard was married to Benitez' sister, his first wife. I never followed up on it because I never cared. I read this way back in the 80's.
