    Hes a lefty fightin orthodox so therfore his jabbing hand is his best and his left hook is more dangerous.

    Tito Trinidad is also a lefty, i have heard from experts that with orthodox stance you defend your body better.

    im a converted southpaw.figgting this way is much better, but there's 2 problems:
    right cross is very weak(hook isnt that bad)
    i very dislike to fight real southpaws.-that's why i think cotto, who has been hurt by corley will loose next fight.

    Cotto being a natural lefty fighting Orthodox is going to be his downfall, Watch the Video and he makes a lot of sense

    he maybe writes with his right but is a lefty. it's possible. I am a lefty myself, but I write and hold the spoon or fork with my right hand. I kick and punch harder with my left side but stay in orthodox stance which gives me power in both hands and legs. this is what made him dangerous with both hands.
    and the same goes for Pacman, he uses his right hand to write but that doesn't mean he is converted.

    That is true but there is a drwback to a southpaw with an orthodox stance. The lead hand is also the dominant hand, meaning that his left hand is doint the jabbing or the one leading, and if he needs to put power to it, he needs to **** it first or pull it back, which is a slower process compared to a southpaw fighter on a southpaw stance where his left hand is already readdy to unload anytime.
