    Naseem Hamed immediately springs to mind... Sugar Ray Leonard did his fair share too.

    Bomber Graham was a natural southpaw, who was taught to switch hit by Brendan Ingle.

    He is probably the best natural switch hitter of all time. Others did it on a round by round basis and were effective.... he was able to do it every time he circled his opponent!
