    Title says for itself,if you're not familiar with it, it's like slipping to the inside of an opponent's punch/rolling with it and countering them with he opposite hand that they're about to hit you with.

    I only saw Arbachakov do it from what I remember,like what was demonstrated in this video,yet I'm pretty sure there was more moves like this.

    There is a more stylized version of it where you rolled with the punch and gambled for the counter to hit clean,it was just fiction yet I still wonder,did anyone actually tried it and came out on top?

    If you’re talking about landing the right hand simultaneously avoiding your opponents… Quarry vs Shavers kill shot, Bowe vs Holyfield 3 it’s again the kill shot and in McCallum vs Toney 1 it featured a fair bit.
