Is it good to be southpaw

[Vasyl’s dad]

yeah, 2 things that I love to do while I'm boxing, one is lead with the straight left and two is wait for my opponent to come with straight punches and counter with the left uppercut. We have some advantages for being lefties.

Most def. And if you happen to be in a streetfight, most people assume you to be right handed and prepare for such.

Once, the family and I were at a friend of my wifes for a bbq. I'm kicking it with her friends husband, and hes this super macho, don't take no **** from anyone, super duper lil man syndrome cat. So hes telling me about all these techniques and holds and what not. He asked if he could try one on me, and he swore I wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

He grabs my right arm. I start laughing and bust him with a left.

"aw dude, you can't do that."
