When I started boxing it was awkward using my lead left hand. I'm lucky I saw a video on youtube called the most dangerous punch in boxing (I think the video has been deleted) But it was a video all about left hook knockouts, or the left hand to the liver. I became obsessed with turning my left into a weapon. now I would say my left hand is better than my right lol

I do MMA coach and I love switching stance. Once I read you can train your less dominant side to be dominant. So I started practicing writing, eating, painting and every daily activity with left hand and I did that for months. And surprisingly my left hook and left jab has drastically improved. Of course not as good as my right.

I stand southpaw, but my dominate is right. Feels more natural than orthodox, but still want to work on orthodox

Excellent video thanks for the advice

Very informative, thanks!

Solid advice mate

Great video 👍

Straight facts brotha keep your power side in the back 💯

Awesome advice. Boxing is changing, I think. Old school techniques and training s don't work anymore if we want to go to the top. It is very difficult to find a trainer who allows us to train both sides in one training session tough. If the trainer is old fashion stubborn guy, more likely he will convince to stick with one side and get perfect, which happened to me. I had to change the gym and get new trainers who are open minded. Am a girl, and it makes more difficult to convince the trainers to let me work on both stances orthodox and southpaw , leg works. But finally I am ok with my new wonderful trainers.... Best of luck to everyone.

Thank you

Any time champ, feel free to leave video ideas in the comments section!

I always felt more comfortable leading with my weak hand and having the right hand hammer coming down the pipe. I also was a great athlete so I didn't have a problem using either hand with speed or power. I think people who are less coordinated or athletic might struggle. I started coordinating my left hand by using it to brush my teeth with it lol

Thank you for that tip I’m going to start doing that and eat with my left for the familiarity to kick in more

Larry Holmes had an excellent jab no doubt, are you familiar with Ricardo Lopez? His jab was amazing

So I’m right handed would you say start orthodox then later learn southpaw or learn southpaw then orthodox because orthodox stance feels very off for me

I kick with my left foot but I punch with my right, what should I use ?

My issue is I'm left handed but my power hand is my right. My str8 left is strong too so i use both my footwork better from southpaw

U should be able to use both sides

I'm a thin weight athlete.

So in wrestling I always had my right foot in front so I decided to be southpaw even tho I'm right handed to not mess up my wrestling

Coach. Some footwork drills are easier for me in a southpaw stance (I'm right-handed). However, since I started in an orthodox stance, feels like the same. How to check what is my natural stance for better balance and footwork?
