Can anyone explain WHY Gerry Cooney never used his right hand??

Cooney is a converted southpaw. His right hand is his weaker hand so he doesn't have much steam behind it. Still you'd expect I guy like him to at least try and make it work a little bit...

I don't recall Cooney ever fighting as a southpaw as his right hand never left the side of his face.. Left jab, left jab, lead left hook in repetative motion...
He was so damn predictable.. Makes me think, he didn't like the gym too much...

He caught Norton with a couple of good rights as I recall, not that I would ever forward that fight as an argument.

Sure.. Norton was well shot by then & I suppose Gerry decided to risk it..
That was the last time I witnessed it though..
