        Without a doubt in my mind it's Whitaker.

        De La Hoya should basically be considered southpaw. Even though his stance is officiall called orthodox, he is basically standing southpaw because he is left handed.

          it depends on what the point of this thread is, if its who best used their stance from a technique viewpoint then you would have to say that its sweet pea followed by hagler, pac and calzaghe.

          if it the point of the thread is who is the greatest southpaw of all time (incliding style, achievements, comp faced and comp beaten) then imo its hagler followed closely by sweet pea and then pac.

                  Whitaker, only because Hagler wasn't really a southpaw, he was able to fight both southpaw and orthodox depending on what was most effective.
