Snap Back (Rock back, pull back, lean back, slip back)

The idea is to move the upper body back to evade a strike to your head while keeping your lower body relatively in the same area. This allows you to quickly move back into position for a counter attack.

To execute simply lean back, shifting about 70% of your weight onto the back foot, then quickly push off the back foot "snapping" you back into position. When leaning back make sure your chin is down. Depending on how much you lean back, you may need to take a small step back with your rear foot so that you are not off balance.

Your counter strike when using the snap back is usually the jab or cross.

Parry (Inside Deflection)

Parrying Straight Punches

Using the palm or forearm to deflect straight punches to the side. Don't over parry as it leaves you open to follow up punches. Use only the necessary amount of motion to redirect the punch.

Though nothing is written in stone, you generally want to use the hand which is on the outside of the opponents punch as it leaves you less susceptible to a follow up strike from the opposite hand. So parry opponents right hand with your left hand. Parry opponents left hand with your right. 

-Lead Hand Parry
-Rear Hand Parry

You can also use your forearms or elbows to parry straight punches to the body.
