    Has a southpaw ever turned up on fightnight and switched to orthodox at the first bell?

    How mad would it be if audley harrison did that and how would haye handle it?

    I think Donaire did it?? He was letting the fight go cause of it, but then halfway through switched back to southpaw and laid down an ass whooping

    Marvin Hagler did it plenty of times throughout his career.

    Not from the first bell that I know of. Morales in the 12th with Pac springs to mind though.

    Isn't Oscar a natural southpaw that fights orthodox?

    Beautiful thing to watch.. His brutality often times overshadows his boxing finesse

    nono what i mean guys is a fighter who has only fought southpaw or orthodox his whole career and then suddenly on fight night he comes out in the opposite stance. Not switch hitting - junior witter did that..
