Rodrigo Guerrero not a southpaw

Post by Graham Houston »

... He boxed in the orthodox stance against Darchinyan, with just a few brief switches to the southpaw style

Like you've said before, "Only in Boxing."
He is listed as a southpaw in the "Official" 2009 FightTax record book on page 164.
:roll: (Who the Association of Boxing Commission claims never makes a mistake!) :wink:

If I change it; Chicken Little of Pork Barrel Inc. will issue another "Red Flag" warning
to Tim Lukenmeister about the dangers to boxers by BoxRec. :(
:confused: What is a poor little old amateur like me to do? :verysad:

I would believe the evidence of your own eyes (or of my eyes). The guy is emphatically NOT a southpaw. He switched to a southpaw stance maybe three times, briefly at that, in the fight with Darchinyan. I believe it was Steve Farhood who mentioned in the ShoBox commentary that Guerrero switches to southpaw only when he feels things are going badly for him in a fight. But, hey, if you wish to list him as a southpaw when he isn't one, that is your prerogative, it's your website.

Guerrero is right handed but has boxed southpaw in the vast majority of his fights. You only have to pull up images of him.
