    Southpaws jabbing with there left's

    I know most southpaws jab with there right, but are there any left-handed turned orthodox fighters that are active today? Do you guys know of any in the past also?

    Wayne Braithwaite sometimes swithces it up, and im sure there are alot of other top fighters who have learned to fight right handed.

    Always an asset. I'm naturally right handed, but learned to box left handed, as switching stance can throw off your opponent.

      De La Hoya is a converted south paw and he does have an advatage in dishing out those crisp powerful jabs.

        I didn't learn but actually grew up fighting and training as a southpaw. It really helps out a lot especially since my jabs have actually become pretty quick and have more pop. But I usually work out my left a lot more than my right considering it's not as naturally as strong as my right. I actually feel awkward fighting in orthodox stance though I do try sometimes.
