The brilliance of Southpaws

Crawford does really well lefty, but he's a switch hitter so I don't count him. I was thinking lefty only guys. Hagler is also ambidextrous

As mentioned a big part of it is for a southpaw bread and butter to face an orthodox while in reverse it is not the case.difference I can think of that’s a disadvantage for southpaws Southpaw stance livers are exposed for orthy lead hooks and straights manny as good as he is nearly went down from a Margarito lead hook downstairs

you didn't mention TBud who southpaw 80% of the time. I rank him highly on the all time list Sugar Robinson Harry Henry Sam Ezzard Willie Muhammad Roberto Sugar Leonard Floyd Benny Leonard Pernell Joe manny Jimmy Mickey Archie Carlos Marvin Barney Tony Julio Rocky Larry Gene Jack TBud Left handed people are only 10% of the population yet on my short all time list southpaws are 15% of the list!

but are Usyk pre-slips inspired in part by manny's pre-slips Lefty vs lefty and it's less impressive. Lefty vs Righty and you have feet being stepped on and a bunch of pawing with the jabs Movement is movement Punch selection and their angles is where things get.....different

A clash of styles more than brilliance. Pac, even in his prime, pretty much had the same movement Bob left, bob right, launch a straight right. Rinse/repeat Lefties are rare, having 2 of them fighting each other even more so. but are Usyk pre-slips inspired in part by manny's pre-slips

manny is a genetic freak and physical phenomenon. A special guy I don't think the phillipines will ever have another fighter as good as manny Pernell and manny are the two most raw talented lefties

good southpaws manipulate space and time southpaw stance goes away on the inside as the fighters square up

left handed myself who trained in the southpaw stance as a FAN I prefer watching orthies fight on average orthies land the jab and lead hook more. boxing's two signature punches
