Evander Holyfield- when he was up on his toes and would take that little half step back and counter with that crisp right hand.

James Toney- unlike Holyfield would do it mostly flat footed. The best probably at rolling away from a right hand and coming straight back with his own right.

Floyd Mayweather- a bit of both really. The way he could counter with the right over the opponents jab would make them wary of even throwing the jab.

There are a lot of other guys, I'm sure somebody will say Bernard for example.
