    Most skilled Southpaws ever/currently active.

    Who are the most skilled southpaws ever, and currently active?

    I want your opinions on the ATG Southpaws because I don't know that much about the southpaw style - but I do know that they are good at taking away the jabs of orthodox fighters.

    My favourite southpaws are Pacquiao, Calzaghe and Martinez.

            I love Whitaker, fantastic defence. Good shout.

            Imagine if there was a southpaw boxer who had Mayweather's defense and counter-punching, the punch volume and angles of Pacquiao, and hit as hard as Hearns or Hagler, and had a granite chin. = The GOAT.

                  The most skilled southpaw of all time and the greatest southpaw of all time is Whitaker.

                  Then you can go with the likes of Hagler, Saldivar, Pac and so on...

                    Michael Nunn almost fits the description minus the granite chin. He was one of the most skilled fighters ever too bad he fell off so quickly.
