Fighters who did damage on the backfoot

[Steak]

Generally when we think of offensive fighters, we think of a guy that moves forward and that goes in for the kill...most of the time when a boxer is doing damage, hes coming at his opponent.

What are some good, high level examples of a boxer backing up but doing damage? What fighters were particularly good at it in general?

Im sure this was the first thing that sprung to everyone's mind


any others?

Miguel Cotto can at times not only beat a guy off the back foot but Beat a guy up off the backfoot
