Embedding it with other than default parameters is kinda screwy, so here it is: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-DggRQngGM[/ame]
haha I saw that video a while ago and the next day I tried it in sparring. I was sparring a southpaw so I used it to counter his jab. Wasn't the hardest shot but right on target and made he instantly took a few steps back. He has another one from the same series showing how to roll the right hand and come back with a right uppercut to the stomach.
Thanks Vibit! Yeah it looks like a good counter to master. Although might have to take a couple before getting used to it.
That move scares the hell out of me. I don't think I'll ever be comfortable with it. Dropping guard + bad reflexes = getting KTFO
Yeah he talks about how Wlad was reluctant to use it. It seems quite risky considering we're not even landing a full power body shot.
It's done a bit in training. Seems like a good punch to learn and use when the time is right. For less risk but less affect You could vary it with semi crouch or timing a half step to your left.
That will make the counter less effective and the movement more complicated and less fluid it seems to me.

Counter? There are many shots. A cross is NOT a shot to play with! If you are countering and not blocking, dodging, or never allowing to be thrown a cross from a guy with a nice cross? You are a bad mofo.
