Marvin Hagler wasn't a natural southpaw which is why got so many people in trouble with the right jab (and flattened Hearns with it).

Was he? Bloody hell!
Anyway, Michael Moorer is, I believe, a right-handed southpaw (opposite of what this thread asks, but bennie's gone & mentioned Hagler now, so...)

Charles "The HAtchet" Brewer was a left-handed orthodox fighter if my memory serves me right. Turned southpaw for a few fights at the end of his career but was mostly orthodox. Gave Calazghe a pretty good fight, although was well beaten in the end.

He certainly seems to fight like a left handed person though, and his left hook is his money shot.
Anyone know if he is a natural left hander taught to write with his right hand?

And BTW here is a clip of Thomas Hearns signing with his right hand.
