A southpaw is more than twice as likely to win a fight (or at least 1/2 as likely to lose based on the stats), perhaps it would be better to learn to fight southpaw than learn to fight a southpaw.
I was looking for the stats earlier, sorry I didn't post them. Here's the abstract on it: http://bjsportmed.com/content/43/2/142.abstract http://bjsportmed.com/content/43/2/142.abstract
> Results: Left-handed boxers had been involved in 75–800 fights (mean 120.6), with 5–79 lost (mean 19.32). A similar evaluation was made for the right-handed boxers. The right-handed boxers had been involved in 50–820 fights (mean 127. 8), with 23–78 lost (mean 42.25). Left-handed boxers were found to be more successful than right-handed ones. The difference between them was found to be significant (p<0.01).
