    Ive recently started sparring and will try to start an amateur career in about a year. I decided to be a southpaw despite being right handed, i know its not ideal but my coach said im doing good. Im just wondering who are the top right handed southpaws in the game rn so that i can find film on them? I only know Demetrius Andrade rn.

    And what are your thoughts on right handed southpaws?

    Cotto was a converted southpaw, no?

    It explained why he had so much power in his right hand.

    Although not active today, Chad Dawson and Winky Wright were right handers that fought southpaw. I think zab judah may be as well, he signs autographs with his right hand

    Could apply to Pac-man too, as I think he does the same and plays the guitar right-handed as well, no strings converted.

    I've heard this one too. It's crazy to think that both have powerful left hands like that if it's their non dominant hand. I know school sometimes makes lefties write as righties, but I've seen ( not in person) judah throw a football far with his right. If Pacman plays guitar with his right, I'm inclined to say he's a true right hander as well.

    It is often not the case. People use each hand for different type of tasks.
    I write/draw with my left because it is better suited for finer movements.
    My right hand is still more powerful and suited to punching. The opposite is true for Pacquiao.
