Orthodox fighters

  • Right handed fighters are called Orthodox
  • Left handed fighters are called Southpaws, not unorthodox (Not necessarily. De la hoya is left-handed, but he uses orthodox stance. There are also some right-handed boxers who has southpaw pose.)

http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&q=unorthodox+southpaw&btnG=Google+Search&meta= Calzaghe is an unorthodox southpaw. Hixx

http://www.boxrec.com/boxer_display.php?boxer_id=005364 < clearly states he's a southpaw

Southpaws are generally called southpaws, not unorthodox southpaws

Maya Levy 04:28, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's a cultural diference. The term 'unorthodox southpaw' is used quite frequently here in the UK. Indeed the entry for prince naseem bears the same term: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Naseem .

point made. since he's a UK fighter I'll leave the term Maya Levy 04:37, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Robin Reid

No mention of the Reid fight being a split decision as well as controversial?? BoxNut83 19:43, 28 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't every split decision controversial by nature?

Enzo Calzaghe

The first person who taught him the first boxing lessons was his father, Enzo. Joe was 9 years old. I am adding the link.

I think it should say something about his dad being his trainer. It makes sense. Michael Dolan
