Depends

I only put my left hand forward

Why protect against pain When you can thrive on it

And that's used as bait a lot

One of the first things we learned in HEMa is how to hold our thumbs properly.

So that they can't get grabbed and broken.

People think that's not a thing but ooooh BOY is it a fuckin thing.

The amount of people I catch with a cross when they try to push or grab it

I am A Southpaw @insanelyvain

LEFTIES UNITE

That can make it easier in some ways

but i can switch Naturally

There's a really good south paw in my gym

Dude can wrestle as well as he can strike

Southpaws are not fun to fight IMO.

why

and I'm one too

Because if you're a rightie, it means your punches will be harder to land.

all the power punches you got are from the right hand

Meaning their right is in your face 24/7

LEFT. god damn it.

You don't like fighting them for the same reason orthodox don't like fighting them

You don't know how

South paw vs south paw is like orthodox vs orthodox

But you're not used to that dynamic

Southpaws vs souths is hard, yeah.

Which is why being ambi is good.

Switch hitters are rare in the fighting community though

like 1 in 20,000

You're used to seeking the outside

And that's harder in a orthodox matchup

For me personally I find it easier to fight a leftie.

@Squeaks Which is why i quit Fighting

Because i was just used as a Tomato Can

Also car if you wanna know why I was getting sued a while ago talking about fighting, it's cus some dude punched me the temple 3 times

Idm

End result from me: concussion and bruises

I spar anyone

I like learning

End result for him: severe concussion, shattered collarbone, two black eyes, broken nose.

Fat man don't play
