El misterio del zurdo

04/08/2016

They say that part of the genius of this world has been created by a lefty. Musicians, writers and (anti) war heroes maneuvered his exploits with his left hand.

In boxing Muhammad Ali (when he was by standing on that profile), Sergio Martinez or Manny Pacquiao showed us that at the time of the beating, being left-handed is advantage. In a world designed for right-handed, left-handed secure more than some he felt failed.

"We are all geniuses. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb trees, live all his life thinking it's a useless" say that Einstein said.

And lefties in the ring that proved to be the masters and lords because they know the world from another perspective, once they were removed from the head that were useless and became geniuses men.

Learn upside down. right foot and right to the front to finish with the strong hand fist. And most of the time will train with dexterous. The way they have advanced because since they are in the gym learn to deal with the world of rights. They know which way they will move and which side can get. They learn upside down, but also learn the right.

Because when fighting southpaw uncomfortable as stone in the shoe. Collides the toes, collides head when it enters the attack and is different.

Right sides seems sometimes to dance, even with blows, is harmonious, is fluid.

Right against left-hander is a permanent warning of an accidental blow head to head that can generate cut and finish the fight abruptly.

Nobody likes technical decisions on medical advice.

But who has seen the magic of a skilled southpaw knows that if he does not win, less worthy fight will be remembered, that he made difficult the fight rival and that despite the defeat, gave a good show.

Special mention false lefties born right-handed, right-handed fight, but changing guard intentionally to get the guard rival and disturb him.

Boxing gods thanks for the southpaw.
