    It is scientifically proven southpaws have the advantage simply because of the fact that there are less southpaws and it makes it more difficult to prepare to fight them and their brains are controlled by using a different thinking pattern which has given them a major advantage in fighting since cave man days.

    What is this brain control you speak of? I'm left handed, and I wouldn't say I'm moar violent than the average person.

    The biggest difference:
    Most orthodox fighters fight mostly orthodox fighters and not very many southpaws .
    Southpaws fight mostly orthodox fighters.
    So when southpaw-orthodox fighter square off, the southpaw is usually more comfortable.

    Yes, I read a similar thing, the right brain has the creativity needed to hunt for food and the left brain holds you back from killing someone for taking your food.
