[hardcore_crash]

Wow, what a great and informing video.
Much appreciation for taking the time in analyzing the footage.

BTW, anyone no where I can find more of the advantages/disadvantages of this stance thoroughly explained.

And lastly, since the overhand right is comes up from and arc downwards would it create more of an impact than an an angled right hook?

Great information, I just learned a lot by watching the videos in this thread, and it clearly shows the advantages/disadvantages of modern vs old stance. With a mean jab, the old stance is in my eyes the better by far.

They say the old days, Trainers hadnt a clue, which is utter Bollocks. In those Days there were Millions Boxing and 8 Titles. The trouble being is when we look at old Film which half the time isnt the right speed, it doesnt look as good as it should. Even Hollywood had trouble getting it right . They did things then that have been forgotten, by most. Today they put a name to an exercise simply to sell it.You can have all the exercise, but you cant beat actually Fighting. The old Timers Did.

What would be the targets for a southpaw?
The ranges are much different; in a positive and negative way.

I notice that my right side is exposed much more by the left hand of an orthodox, naturally. But, the right hand is much farther away and can be seen and blocked much easier.

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

I'm working on a more detailed reply to the southpaw question for another thread, but really quickly I can tell you that moving to YOUR left as a southpaw employing this stance becomes as sensible a tactic as moving to your right normally is. Not any old way of course. More to come.

Thanks for the video mate, i like to look back time to time at your vids for motivation before i train the ezzard charles one is still my favourite though hes fast becoming my favourite boxer of all time.

a great video, really useful, someone should make a vid like this about sugar ray robinson, there would be a lot there to learn too.

Charlie actually got anal-yed when he didn't get the same chances like Sugar Ray Robinson. With the same talent, indeed.
