When you set out to avoid something, it often ends up happening. Draw that punch- so you'll know when it is coming, as opposed to scurrying around wondering when and where it is- and counter off it. Your right hook should beat his straight right to the mark every time, given that his has the longer distance to travel and, by throwing it, he turns into your hook.
In the last Pac/Marquez fight, Manny went through contortions to avoid the right hand. Watch the way he was throwing his left and bailing out...only to get conned at the end and get slammed by the punch he had been avoiding.
