    cotto was a natural south paw who learned how to box right, but many times in his past couple fights. he has switched southpaw alot and thrown a perfect stright left

    Well, I would think that a natural lefty could throw an effective straight left out of the southpaw stance.

    Not being a smartarse, but can ODLH?

    He's a natural lefty I think.

    Good point. However, does DLH ever fight out of the soutpaw stance?

    I'm not sure.

    I don't recall having seen it, but then, I've avoided Oscar fights for the last few years. (everything post Vargas has been a waste of time to me. That was the last fight I had any interest in with Oscar).

    He does. But not really effective. He switched to southpaw against Whitaker and got dropped. Though it wasn't a true knockdown.
