#4 Defending Booker T's boxing knowledge

Booker T occasionally offers some interesting additions to the dialogue heard on Monday nights. His cohorts aren't afraid to call him out for the times when he isn't being consistent or when he simply says something silly.

So, when Booker complimented Samoa Joe's "southpaw right-hand jabs," he was quickly made a fool. However, Booker was actually spot on with his analysis this time.

Corey was quick to ask Booker what a Southpaw right-hand jab was as if Booker had no clue what he was talking about. To set the record straight (by consulting with the Wikipedia entry for Southpaw Stance), a boxer who is left-handed "has his right hand and right foot forward, leading with right jabs."

The jab is given by the non-dominant hand. If Samoa Joe is left-handed, then the punches from his right hand are technically his jabs. Graves was wrong here and Booker T was right.

To be fair, Booker did mispronounce the word equilibrium by omitting the 'r' in the very same sentence, so we can at least laugh at that.
