there are two ways to counter a right hand with a left hook.

one way is to slip a right hand through the space that you have next to your right ear and over your right shoulder and in the same motion transfer your body weight over your front leg and into a counter left hook. however when you are working a right hand to the space in front of the head it wont pass through slip space and cant be countered this way.

another way is to throw a check hook over the top of a right hand.

whenever you are throwing any right hand that is being countered by a check hook you have to get your head inside and/or under the check hook.

that was how marvin hagler knocked out tommy hearns

you can throw your right hand and naturally preform a slipping motion simultaneously to get your head inside and/or under a check hook or you can throw your right hand and duck under a check hook

dam the way hagler did it was so fluid ...like it was one motion.

when u slip down though to avoid the left hook could u be potentially open to a uppercut?

Haven't seen this in 10 years but it's underrated. Not sure why Witter couldn't out it together. He had stamina issues but his hand speed & power were good. Hatton wanted nothing to do with him either.



14:15-14:38 :mjlol: :what: :whoo:


i never thought much of witter but his KO of vivian harris was :ooh:

He also said that Beterbiev is a stronger puncher than Kovalev
Yeah, that doesn't supreme me. Beterbiev looks like he may be the hardest puncher in boxing outside of HW's.
Isn't Beterbiev really a CW cutting down?...thought I heard that.

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
I thought Marquez wanted a 5th division belt?:dahell:


He'd be better off taking a tuneup, and then trying to fight the winner of Ali/Vargas on the undercard of Canelo vs GGG on Mexican Independence Day, because I think Cotto beats him.

I thought Cotto couldn't make 147 anymore :jawalrus:
