Leon Williams (born 6 November 1983 in London) is a cruiserweight British boxer. He competed in the Prizefighter series in April 2010 losing in his first bout to eventual winner Jon-Lewis Dickinson.
Williams won the Southern Area title in October 2010 with a points win over JJ Ojuederie. This was followed, however, by a second round knockout by Richard Turba.
Williams became British cruiserweight champion following his controversial defeat of Robert Norton on 21 October 2011. Most observers had Norton comfortably winning the fight. Williams lost the British title in January 2012 when he was stopped in the final round by Shane McPhilbin. This time, Williams was well ahead on the cards and had dropped McPhilbin earlier in the fight, but a late barrage by McPhilbin saw the fight stopped.
Williams fought Tony Conquest in July 2012 in an attempt to regain his Southern Area title. Conquest stopped Williams in the first round.
