how does a southpaw fighter have an advantage over a conventional fighter?

all u righties...its not fair lol

Dude pretty much answered it as best as anyone could. It's all about familiarity. Most of the population is Right-handed.

a much higher percentage of fighters are orthodox as apposed to southpaws. orthodox fighters are going to be used to seeing other orthodox fighters and southpaws are also going to be used to seeing orthodox fighters but orthodox aren't going to be used to seeing southpaws as much. same logic goes for southpaws fighting southpaws...they don't see other southpaws as much so they won't be used to the angles and whatnot.
