Definitivamente, uno de los gimnastas más destacados de los Juegos Olímpicos en Londres 2012 fue el atleta de origen cubano Danell Leyva, quien se alzó con la medalla de bronce en el All Around de la gimnasia artística masculina individual.
Con su impresionante hazaña - y esos bíceps - cada vez que le tocaba concursar, tenía a medio mundo pegado a la pantalla. Además, dio bastante de qué hablar cuando posó desnudo en la edición 2012 de la revista ESPN Body Issue.
Por esto y más, lo tenemos que incluir en nuestra lista de los deportistas más destacados del año, y a quienes inevitablemente les aguarda un mejor 2013.
