    I've just subscribed to a fascinating YouTube channel, TED-Ed. Genetics and evolution have given lefties an advantage in competitive sports such has boxing.

    In combat sports being different is good, imagine only sparring and fighting against right handed fighters, you become accustomed to this. Your next opponent is a southpaw, your opponent has the advantage of fighting mostly against orthodox fighters wheras you wouldn't have a clue.

    Total advantage. And I loved using it.
