Man I'm a natural Southpaw and my coach told me to switch Orthodox coz I'm having a hard time to block another jab and can't pull a cross jab. Also they mostly do a lot of blitz at me so what should I do.
Get real good at slipping your head to the inside which most coaches will tell you to never do. But every orthodox fighter is taught to step to a southpaws outside foot. As a southpaw only hand you really need to worry about is that right hand. Get used to slipping to the inside and then wait for that right hand and drop your level to slip the right cross. And your opposent by using the cross would have already closed the distance so you don't even really have to move in. As far as the jab try to parry it with your forearm in an upward motion. Keep your shoulders up watch Miguel Cotto and just mirror him.
These southpaw videos are the best. Really just get to see everything I’m trying to work on done by pro’s multiple times over. Thank you.
thank you so much for these!
Bro thank you
