keep it up man

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.

I have watched that Charley Burley video so many times. I was wondering if you have the time to create any other ones. In all honestly videos like these make people truly appreciate boxing more as they realize the amount of craft it takes to be a master scientist of this sweet sweet science.

To graynotsoold i just wanna say thanks I can't reply back in PM's because my post isn't high enough yet but I have done as you suggest and those are very nice informative videos. Thanks a bunch!

I was impressed by this video analysis. Great job

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

Wonderful video.
I sometimes question whether modern foot wear has completely destroyed that stance.

I watch this video from time to time and I have to say I never get bored of watching it. . Burley controlling an opponent as if he's just a ball on a string being toyed by a better man.
