    some back up, some bend at the waist under the right hand and turn with their opponent to avoid lead foot dominance, e.g. Floyd Mayweather. Some are so quick they take half a atep back and slip a counter in there, some just hold. There are a lot of things you can do in that situation if you're sharp and quick enough.

      One of the older guys at my gym gave me similar advice.

        It Depends what he does right after the jab . If he he is looking for a 1-2 you get your head off the center and fire your left or step right with a check hook over the jab.

          slip his jab to the outside and just stick your your left hand out there, he'll run right into it. And if you want to be a **** you could step for power and step on his foot while crashing your left hand home...…..Rockin'
