Name fighters who like to move on backfoot but can throw real knockout counterpunches.
Active AND retired fighters.
Just some random picks:
-Juan Manuel Marquez
-Sugar Ray Leonard
-Sugar Ray Robinson
Who you got? :boxing:
Roy Jones could knockout someone on their @ss leaning back and throwing an arm punch. Mike Tyson is probably the best example of a counterpuncher who is a knockout artist. James Toney is probably the most iconic counter puncher this day in age who would stand toe to toe.
Marquez's counter right hand knockout of Pacqiao was one of the most epic KOs of all time. Rarely do you see those types of KOs at the elite level. Ali Koing Liston is a close second though.
