Five-division world champion and Hall of Famer "Sugar" Ray Leonard will show off his fancy footwork on the dance floor as he joins the season 12 cast of Dancing With the Star. Leonard is the third professional boxer to appear on the show, following in the footsteps of former four-time heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield and undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather. He will be partnering up with Anna Trebunskaya, who has finished as high as second place when she was partnered with football Hall of Famer Jerry Rice during season 2 and Olympic Figure Skating Gold Medalist Evan Lysacek during season 10. Trebunskaya has also partnered with former UFC light heavyweight champion Chuck Liddell and most recently former Super Bowl MVP Kurt Warner.
The competition gets started on Monday, March 21 with a 2-hour season premiere.
