    Can anyone think of any? I know Victor Ortiz is right handed, with his best shot being the right hook (so they say). Not really impressed with his straight left or jab though. What other advantage would a right handed southpaw hold over a left handed southpaw?

    Is Tyson Fury right handed? He fought at least against Rogan as a southpaw

    if youre leading with your strong hand, then you'd expect them to have a stiff good jab, like DLH and Cotto except for the fight orthodox. But that isnt always the case, just look at Ortiz weak ass jab.

    This is why Victor Ortiz body looks exposed because he is not a natural southpaw, he is not fluid at at all.
    He is an under corver banger. a slow one, no speed at all, NONE!

    Manny Pacquiao is a southpaw (left handed stance) but outside the ring he is right handed. Manny Pacquiao is apparently ambidextrous.

    Something I read

    That's the issue with being a southpaw. It's harder to land your jab out of that stance.

    The main punch for most southpaws is the str8 left hand. Fighting southpaw as a right hander can leave you with both a **** jab, since it's harder to land, and str8.

    Right handers for the most part should stay orthodox imo.

    That is correct but he claims to be just as powerful with his left.
