Of course, you have to work in the gym punching from both sides.

It is unusual, but not impossible, to hurt the liver with a straight punch, in the case of a southpaw, that will be a cross. But if you are a southpaw and you want to punch the liver of an orthodox opponent, then switching stances is inevitable, it will be like Mike Tyson's movement. Otherwise, delivering a body hook from a southpaw stance is doable, but requires even better positioning at the right moment (you can imagine standing against an orthodox fighter, dropping your hand low to throw it from a longer distance while you get exposed for his cross which is faster to deliver). As for getting enough power, if you properly land on the liver, it doesn't even require much.

Just get under his jab, while busting him in his body. When working the body it's kind of like hand grenades, all that you need to do is get it close, he'll feel it. Trust me! ................Rockin'
