    Yes. It's a pull-counter with the pull being done by the feet (as opposed to the upper-body like Floyd or Ali often do it). In the gym I've always been taught to throw the right after pulling my whole body back, like JMM did there.

    Link doesnt work, but I assume its the 10th round & Holy feints, takes a half step back to make Tyson miss then nails him with a right hand. Yeah, thats a pull-counter using his feet rather than upper-body movement,

    For some strange reason all my Kell Brook gifs have dissappeared but his pull counters are sick.

    Brook a G:smoke

    Edit: Nice one Miniq.

    Pull counters are great. Shows a boxer is really thinking and bieng pre-emptive in his moves.

    every single move in boxing isn't so rigid and has a name.

    Is it? I thought Floyd's pull counter is done with his feet. Every time I see Floyd do the pull counter, he anticipates his opponent's punch/reaching jab by planting his right foot first, leans back on the jan, then POOOOWWWW!!!!

    please educate me if Im wrong. never did this against other opponents except against my 4 year old son:nut
