    I saw Maidana use it against Floyd a little, and Pacquiao used it against Algieri. Their's are more subtle. Floyd's pull counters have a lot of finesse and are really dramatic, so they are much easier to notice, lol.

    Pacquiao uses the pull-counter for an opponent's "body jab from a distance" Algieri used it some, but he stopped because Manny would counter a 4,5,6 punch combination. I was actually surprised. I didn't think he uses it, but he does. Maidana's pull counter sucks. He's too slow. Awful, just awful.

    It's strange that you remember the exact spot.

    Sweet, Matthysse has the power to go with it. He's a very under rated boxer too.
