A local pen-pusher has revealed his fighting style to The Betoota Advocate today.
The account manager at Marketing Agency in Betoota’s Old City District confirmed to us that he is, in fact, a ‘southpaw.’
In the boxing world, a southpaw stance is one where the boxer has his right hand and right foot forward and is effectively the term for a left-hander.
The man named Thomas Holden told us that his boxing style was confirmed after his second boxing session down at a gym in the Flightpath District.
“Yeah my coach told me I’m a southpaw last night,” Holden said.
“I sort of knew I was one anyway, I’ve gotta pretty strong left hook on me you know,” he laughed.
The news came after Holden signed up for a ludicrously expensive Corporate Boxing program in some attempt to become more masculine.
“It’s a pretty sweet gig man. A couple of training sessions for a few months and then they throw me in the ring with another bloke and we go toe to toe,” Holden said.
“I’m gonna be bringing the heat with the big left hook,” he said motioning with some right jabs followed by a few ‘ootz ootz’ noises.
“Pretty scary how much progress I’ve already made.”
Holden’s coach Tony Nicconi told The Advocate he likes to massage the ego’s of the corporates that come down to him.
“Obviously he is a Southpaw. He is a left-hander and certainly hasn’t got anywhere near enough physical power to be able to hook with his opposite hand,” Nicconi said.
“You’ve just got to tell these city workers things like that so they get a sugar hit ego boost.”
