Unit 5 | Nelson Mandela—a modern hero
★He was a boxing fan. In his youth, Nelson Mandela enjoyed boxing and longdistance running. Even during the 27 years he spent in prison, he would exercise every morning. “I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it,” he wrote in his autobiography(自传)Long Walk to Freedom. In the Mandela Family Museum in Soweto, visitors can find the world championship belt given to Mandela by American boxer Sugar Ray Leonard.
