Uh oh. Now I'm concerned for Floyd.

[SweetPbfAli]

He used it against Manny at least 3 times.



He tried initially against Corley until he got tagged, got pissed off and just went to war on him. You're right that he hasn't done it against southpaws besides Manny.




No story really, this was the Rousey fight, UFC 184, so Cat was fired up and just got ahead of herself. I don't think she was aiming at Conor specifically, but it created quite a stir at the time.

And while I agree on the surface with BucaRican about the women's fights, this one specifically only lasted 14 seconds before Rousey had her tapping, so it wasn't like people really their money's worth if I recall correctly.

Yeah, i consider those to be basic right hand counters. The pull counter is usually when he baits the jab from you and makes you think he's within distance and pulls his body back and comes over the top of the jab. Ali used to do it in his younger years but not as exaggerated as Floyd's.

I'll rewatch. I remember him using the check hook against Ortiz and walking him down in spots but not the pull counter. That's a dangerous punch to use versus a lefty, especially since he tends to duck out and over to his right which is their left. IT makes more sense as the right coming over the left jab.

Are we talking a traditional counter versus a pull counter?

I don't recall any pull counters against Ortiz. Then again most of the Ortiz fight was a blur prior to the headbutt.

No, he absolutely is doing pull counter. Some guy has an image of the most obvious one in his sig, where it looks like Floyd got grazed.

There were minimum three: The face graze - Found it, 0:48 in the schooling video, the one where he stuck the shoulder (below video), and the first round punch that sent Manny tentative (0:33 from the schooling video).

He's just so fast at doing it you think it's a regular counter.

So fast it looked like time stopped.

[lopetego]

Correct if I'm wrong, but it almost appears as if the cap was going to miss whether he moved or not.

The cap MISSED Connor, he moved his head right after the cap passed by

cat like reflexes doe

Absolutely ridiculous reflexes.

[Hype job]

Connor's gonna be in Floyd's face pull countering with his hands down.

[LittleLucy]

I mean...screw all the sparring videos, that's just sparring.

Screw him tapping out, that's on his back/side.

Screw him running from Nate Diaz.

Why isn't anybody talking about THIS video?

Look at the man's reflexes!

Look how calm, how smoove, he just evades a flying hat coming at him at ridiculous speeds!

McGregor might do this on the pull counter, Floyd's #1 weapon!!!!!!!

Money May might be in some trouble...

GOD LIKE REFLEXES!
