its the same way w/the off, from what i have see; get u watching or going one direction to catch/def the initial attack which creats the opening for the unorthodox counter to ur def.. or just do movemements that make u hesitate in attacking, see judah v mayweather; zab does a variation which more or less keeps pbf in the pocket not attacking or doing anything due to confusion in regards to what is being done or set up. An if ur very familiar w/how eff dynamic/masterful and tech a boxer pbf is u know that is quite the feet.

the defense seems fairly sound to me in regards to little shifts and blocks they exhibit and little steps/parries and shoves they use to adj the range or get the opp off their sweet spot or out of position...

its not BAD per se
