    First LH champion to turn the trick was Micheal Spinks I believe. Fitz actually won the Heavyweight title well before he won the LH crown, and natural LH's like Charles and Tunney never held the World title at LH.

    Not a chance. :D Most likely guesses would have been Donald Curry or Johnny Bumphus in that case.

    Although I never held official recognition as world champion, and never received a title shot, I was a top contender in both the LH and Heavyweight divisions in the 1940's.

    Hailing from Cleveland, I also defeated Charley Burley, Ezzard Charles, Archie Moore, Lloyd Marshall, and a whole bunch of other good to great LH''s throughout my career.

    Final fint: My last professional fight was a six round decision over victory over Mike DeJohn, who was to become a fringe contender at heavyweight in later years.

    Jimmy Bivens

    After retiring from the NBA, I decided to give pro boxing a shot. I retired from boxing with a 3-0 record at cruiserweight.

    Sounds like Zab Judah to me. Or at least that would be a correct answer, if not the intended one.

    Correct.

    I believe the answer to this question is Kendall Gill.
