    "TWO SOUTHPAWS, **** FIGHT :good"

    "I hate Moorer, goofy clown southpaw."

    "Hatton a bum, he lost to a frickin southpaw Pacquiao. Idiot...:-("

    Is this who you're talking about?

    Alexander-Urango was pretty good and a great KO. I liked Judah-Spinks but many will not.

    SP v SP is not really a frequent event

    Thanks for the question! I was watching Vicente Saldivar vs Mitsunori Seki I & II yesterday, and couldn't remember the last time I watched 2 south paws...I am sure I have and that there are likely to be many better answers! I was actually thinking about posting this same thread!

    Saldivar vs Seki I & II were very entertaining to me!

    Kalule vs Emiliano Villa

    Great smooth technical fight with loads of quality exchanges.

    Limon-Navarrete amd Limon-Edwards are two good fights involving southpaws.

    But the best ive seen is probably Zaragoza-Banke II followed by Hamed-Kelley.

    Hagler v Minter was short and sweet.Till the bottles started flying anyway.

    Surprised no one has mentioned Navarrete-Boza Edwards yet. When it came to great southpaw battles, the early 1980s were the ****, especially at 130 and 160.
