im right handed and i throw right handed and write with my right but when i fight i fight in a south paw stance with my right hand in front of me. would it be more affective if i switched to a regular stance so i can throw harder rights???
Hey I also have a tendency to do the same while fighting. In a boxing match I would not reccomend it, in a real brawl i find it just as effective. But boxing in suchh a way is like overcompensating for a feeling of weakness in the nondominant arm.
There are other posts on the site that I've left about this topic. Briefly, it's all a matter of comfort. If you are more comfortable with your dominant hand (the right) in the lead, and are more comfortable circling to your right, then you should be a southpaw. If not, then maybe you should fight orthadox. There are a lot of factors to take into account. Do you have a strong left hand? What kind of a style would you like to develop? More emphasis on movement and speed (which might be benefited by a southpaw jab)? Or more power oriented (where you would rely on your strong right hand from the orthadox position)? A lot of things to consider, that only you can decide. GOOD LUCK!!
