Herbert Randolph Sugar (June 7, 1936 – March 25, 2012) was an American sportswriter known for his work covering boxing and baseball. As the author of over 80 books, The New York Times called Sugar an "accomplished raconteur with a bottomless sack of anecdotes" who was always seen with his trademark fedora and unlit cigar. He was inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2005.
