Blight is a fungal disease that causes the leaves of boxwoods to become spotted and then turn brown. This fungal disease causes massive defoliation on infected specimens. There is no known cure for this problem; infected plants and roots must be removed and discarded, not composted.
Spotted, dark colors on leaves are an indication of serious problems with your plant. Plant leaves turn black for a number of reasons, including environmental factors and bacterial infections. In some cases the plant is salvageable. However, most of the problems that cause black leaves in plants are irreversible. In every case, prevention is the best way to deal with the disease and dehydration that are common factors in blackened leaves.
