    ....should be strangled at birth. Just sparred with one and it was frustrating as hell.

    Seriously, if you're tall and have talent, become a southpaw.

    If only I'd of been taller. :D

    I always hated sparring smaller guys, who swarmed me, I liked room to throw my punches.

    apply pressure onto him?

    southpaws have to maintain some range to utilize their southpaw advantage

    I'm not a good swarmer, I'm an outside type. I was reaching him with some straight bodyshots but he started timing me with his jab and hooks and I got frustrated and lunged in and couldn't do anything. Sucks being a short rightie.

    It was basically the only way for me to land and make it tougher.

    Slick Southpaws are the most difficult style match up in the sport. The angle combined with the defense is frustrating as ****.....which is why I rate Sweet Pea so highly.

    He was beyond slick, just phenomanal.

    How great could Zab of been if he'd of had the right conditioning and mentality :-(
