I think Henry cooper might of been a converted southpaw

I had dinner with Henry last week.

He is left handed but has always led with his left, so I suppose he isnt strictly converted.

I remember Greg saying something about it in a Ring magazine interview back in '83 or '84, he was one of the few to switch very nicely.

I believe British middleweight KO artist Tony Sibson was also a converted southpaw.

Wasn't Joe Frazier a converted southpaw?

Kalule? (or was that the other way round?)

Pinklon Thomas.

[Woller]

Kalule should have fought orthodox, but his older brothers were southpaws, so Kalule thought that he had to fights like that, and it stuck.
