    On this instagram vid Rousey throws an orong from a soutpaw stance, but she tried to box Nunes from an orthodox stance, why didn`t she or her trainer no she was a southpaw? It might have helped her ''head movement'' and balance.

    She probably used orthodox to set a Judo throw thinking she was gonna throw Nunes around like a ragdoll. No matter what paw she was gonna use, Nunes was gonna beat the kent out of her.

    Yes, but in her vids of her ''training'' for that match up she hit the pads from an orthodox stance and didn`t even notice the difference, maybe she didn`t even know you can box southpaw, lol.

    I agree with the main point, if you’ve grappled all your life one stance, no point in changing to learn to strike, it doesn’t make that much difference.
