    Calzaghes left hand was dangerous in his prime before the hand troubles.
    Taylor has a great left jab too

    His lefhand was never good against top fighters. he slapped. Im talking about cultured left hand thrown with technique, not a fencing punch

    Whitaker got fantastic leverage with his left. Imagine if he'd been gifted with natural power also...

    Mate Winky Wright was a southpawhis left was a power punch, not a lead jab. But yeah it deserves a mention. He also has one of the best southpaw right hooks ive ever seen, not a common weapon
