What Do You Call A Right Handed Boxer. An orthodox boxer is someone who is naturally right handed and holds the left hand and left leg in front closer to the opponent. For clarity the following discussion will assume a right handed boxer.
The converse is true of southpaw boxers who are usually left handed. Napoleon is right handed so all of the moves below demonstrate the stance and body positioning for someone who is right handed. Even if you are left handed you may choose to remain in an orthodox stance and there are a number of reasons why this could be beneficial.
In either stance the lead hand is extended forward in front of the body and the other hand is held near the chin for protection the chin is tucked into the chest and the shoulders are hunched.
But if you are a right handed southpaw boxer your power hand the right hand is also your lead hand. So you can jab with much more power compared to a right handed boxer staying in an orthodox stance. If you re left handed you can still set up like napoleon or you. For a left handed boxer or southpaw the hand positions are reversed.
