    I don't know how Loughran fared with south paws , so I'll wait and read some replies first.

    i may get shot down for this but i favour loughran here he may be in with a southpaw with a big power advantage , but for me loughran's footwork was good enough to keep him in the position he would probably want .i am not saying he would not be hurt he may even find himself on the canvas but for me his skill and ring craft would give him enough to take a decision victory

    Facing a technical sound southpaw with fast hands, big power, deadly left and right hand counters, solid inside fighting while keeping your hands low and chin in the air and relying solely on the jab = not the best idea. Loughran would get knocked out, good for him he disaproved of fighting the brothas

    Loughran dances and fences his way to a solid decision...I think Moorer is waaay overrated here.
