Usher as boxing legend Sugar Ray Leonard

Usher shed 30 pounds and grew out hair in preparation for his upcoming role as boxing great Sugar Ray Leonard in movie Hands of Stone. Hands of Stone will tell the story of Panamanian legendary boxer Roberto Duarn. Durans first two fights with Sugar Ray are two of the most memorable fights in the 80s. Usher compared boxing to dancing when asked  how he prepared for the role. He believes he was picked because of his dancing skills which he believes makes it easier for him to familiarize himself with Sugar Rays stylish iconic fighting style.
