Timing Counter

TIMING Counter: Dropping a right hand over a lazy lead. This will work if the lead-off fighter throws an uncommitted jab, or drops it on the way out (when retracting the punch). Remember, the best defense really is a good offense. If you commit fully to an offensive technique, and your tactic is sound, the counter-fighter will be forced to defend the technique-creating openings-rather than counter. This will only work with commitment. In this case, the counter fighter also has used a draw by keeping the lead hand low to leave the head vulnerable-drawing the lazy jab. Nice.
