Thread: Right hand counters to Straight Lead After Slip or Parry

To slip inside on a str rght lead, shift your weight over a straight right leg and swing left hip and shoulder through the center line, pivoting on left toe, allowing the str rght to pass over left shoulder. To slip outside; as opponent begins str rght lead, step forward and left shifting wght over a strght left leg. At same time turn rt shoulder sharply forward; the rt hip will also swing forward. ON A STRAIGHT right lead, slip to the inside position and uppercut the right to the chin or solar plexus. ON a str rght lead slip to the out side position and hook the right to the chin or to the stomach. Slip to the outside position and drive a str rght to chin or solar plexus. (NOTE this is a natural counter here, very hurtful punch to get hit with and utterly avoidable if you throw your right hand properly) TO PARRY to the inside position on a str rght lead, turn your body slightly to the right, with palm outward, brush outward with left hand, keep right hand high to block or counter; considerable force is necessary to pull this one off. To parry to the outside position, as he begins str rght lead, step forward and left, brushing his rght to your rght w/ your left hand. TO COUNTER parry to inside position and use the str rght or rght uppercut to either chin or solar plexus. (remember that to begin this move you turn right putting wght on rt leg, thus when you open him up by turning back left you'll be in place to throw rght hands) Parry to the outside position and hook or uppercut to either chin or solar plexus. (this parry was commonly used by JCChavez; when fighting in close he frequently used hi left to bump the opponent's rt elbow as he tried to start a punch, or he'd lean back and brush the punch as described here.)

More good stuff there my notes are starting to get pretty thick

TO COUNTER parry to inside position and use the str rght or rght uppercut to either chin or solar plexus. (remember that to begin this move you turn right putting wght on rt leg, thus when you open him up by turning back left you'll be in place to throw rght hands)

This one I can "visualize" and it feels natural.

ON a str rght lead slip to the out side position and hook the right to the chin or to the stomach. Slip to the outside position and drive a str rght to chin or solar plexus. (NOTE this is a natural counter here, very hurtful punch to get hit with and utterly avoidable if you throw your right hand properly)

Are these 2 here all one move...slip and punch at the same time? Also did you mean this counter is utterly UNavoidable if you throw your right hand properly?

Will practice tomorrow and let you know how it goes. Also one more thing. Probably a stupid question but I'll ask anyway. When you use the phrase "straight right lead" does that signify a lead in right without prior use of the jab or does it matter?

On the outside slip on the str rght lead, the right hook and str rght counters are simultaneous, the punch is the slip. I'm sorry I should have typed that it is unavoidable unless you throw the right hand properly. By 'properly' I mean , in particular, not moving the right hand until your shoulders reach the cnterline and keeping your chin down.
