left hook i think i heard gil clancy say that in mugabi fight with hagler he said * best way to beat southpaw is left hook*

if i remember right mate

the same way a regular fighter beats another regular fighter...

South paws are used to facing a mirror image of themselve's in terms of stance... when facing another south paw it's just the same as two orthodox fighters fighting... same tactics etc...

thanks guys i ha vnt actually faced a south paw yet myself even though im a south paw . so im just wondering on tips thanks guys

lol i'll box you. I'm a southpaw also, and I haven't boxed another southpaw either, but I would suppose it would just be what 2 orthodox fighters would look/feel when they fight each other.

a southpaw fighting another southpaw can be just as awkward as it is for an orthodox fighter to box a southpaw because southpaws are a lot more used to fighting right handed fighters in the same way that right handed fighters are (hope that makes sense).

that's right, the tactics for a south paw fighting an orthodox fighter are the same the other way round... it's just that the southpaw is more practiced at it... the orthodox fighter isn't as used to the angles etc.

B-HOP is. cause hes undefeated against southpaws and hes orthadox

he's still not as used to it as some one like Winky Wright... the south paws B-Hop beat he beat because he was better...

two equal skilled boxers... the south paw will be much more comfortable

this might be dumb question but i need to kno . if i get a chance to fight a another southpaw in the future wont be want to defeat me with a left hook how could i try myself to not be tricked by it . if that makes any sense

cause like the guys said im used to right handed fighters
