i've heard 3 common sayings: 1. the jab of the southpaw guy almost always beats the orthodox guy's jab 2. the southpaw is more vulnerable to the orthodox's right straight 3. the southpaw is more vulnerable to the orthodox's left hook to body why? how?
They're exactly mirrored, neither has much advantage from it, although southpaws face orthodox fighters more often than the other way around. Jabs often hit each other when fighting a southpaw. Just like the orthodox is vulnerable to the southpaw's straight left. Again, it's an exact mirror, neither is favored. Again, just as vulnerable as you are to his right hook. The only advantage for an orthodox is that the liver of a southpaw is exposed a bit more.
