      Freddie Miller, Lew Tendler, Flash Elorde, Vicente Saldivar, Tiger Flowers, Duilio Loi, George Chaney...just a few more of the better southpaws in boxing history.

      Also, William "Bendigo" Thompson was one of the most popular & most skilled fighters of the bareknuckle eras, and he supposedly spent the vast majority of his time fighting out of the southpaw stance.

        Manny... a lefty?

        Good list.

        I'd put Corey Sanders in top 10, in place of Casamayor.

        I would put Jirov as number 7 instead of Braithwaite.

            I agree, he was very slick. Im not saying this b/c he is my uncle but, Macho could have been one of the best boxers of all time if he would have been more dedicated to the sport.

                  hmm

                  Pac is not a great south paw. Any fighter with a solid basic ground to work from will give him hell. You will see again in the future, he will be exposed.

                  Rockin'
                  Pac is an awesome fighter who happens to be southpaw. Top 10 p4p in case we forgot. He is a very good sotuhpaw. He isn't going to get "exposed". Everyone knows what he is about already anyway. He shouldn't be fighting at 130 though. If anything gets exposed, it will be his size. His tenacity, power, and speed is enough to get him by though right now. There's no denying his natural skills.
