Sugar Ray Leonard - Where did his receding hairline go?

Sugar Ray Leonard dazzled boxing fans in the 70s and 80s with his fast footwork and entertaining fighting style on his way to multiple world titles. He now dazzles housewives with his fancy footwork and non threatening demeanor as a contestant on Dancing With The Stars. Goes to show you how the more things change, the more they stay the same…except his hairline. Towards the end of his boxing hey day, Sugar was clearly experiencing hairline recession, but as he re-enters the spotlight, I can’t help but notice a subtle, but definite shift in said hairline. He has never and probably never will admit it, but I think Sugar Ray wears a hairpiece. It’s hard to notice because his hair has always been so dark, and I think he got to the problem early enough that the transition went mostly unnoticed, but something just isn’t right on top of that man’s head. Judge for yourselves folks, did Sugar Ray knock out aging, or is he just playing the rope a dope thinking he is fooling us.

Notice the large temple recession. Today it's gone.
