slip - jab goes right thru the defense? How can you block this punch? What an unpleasant surprise after 4 weeks of absence.
Horrible, just horrible.

Yeah Boon I know its bad but the only way to defend against it is to avoid it or counter it. Gotta jab better and lean more and the crouching left jab works well against the slip jab.

"John represents the renaissance of OB. John stepped up and filled the vacuum Fatny left behind. Not only his skills are amazing, also his dedication to keep this game interesting and alive. I was there when he first won the title, I was watching over his shoulder when he bullied all competition, I was there when he became a HOF´er. I may not be a great fighter myself, but I do have eye for talent. John is something special, I told him right after he won his first title. John is the spark that became a flame that turned into a devastating fire. Apart from being a great guy he never stepped down from a challenge and always looked to square off against OB´s best to further improve his skills. Many HOF´ers made short comebacks during the year John reigned OB, only to be knocked out by Big Bad John." - Dick E. Boon

"The thing with John is that he's just so extremely accurate, both in offense and in defense. There's some punches I consider myself a master of, like the small hook and the long upper. Well they're useless against John no matter how well you throw them, he just keeps blocking 90% of them and hurting you in the process. Speaking of which...if he hurts you (and he will), you better move your head a lot because he also happens to be one of the best finishers i've ever seen. Basically if you're not extremely good AND creative, you'll end up on the floor. A fine addition to the hall of fame indeed." - Fatny

you can also block it just like you block uppercuts (cross arms)

Yep.

same here. But you can get the guys using this punch very easy with using the straigt jab (its a little more powerful and you floor them before they floor you). Only when you are in red be careful and not use the straight jab because opponent will win "jab-contest" then. In that case lean back and jab like john said or regenerate.
