It slips through the guard the way your jab would on an orthodox fighter. Work the left hook to the body. A southpaw puts his liver up front, and your body blows will have more effect, so use them. Try this strategy, and let me know how it works out. I'd be willing to bet that you'll enjoy some immediate success. If that works out for you, I'll add to it.
Summary:
- Circle outside his lead hand.
- Throw the lead right hand (use your cross the way you normally do your jab) from time to time.
- Work the left hook to the body.

Are you saying convert to south paw? That's what it sounds like.
