Dont matter,do it anyway. You get some recovery-time by that. Etienne did it to Tyson,although that's a bad example. :yep

Time them coming in. You don't necessarily have to be faster than someone if you have good timing. It takes a while learn but it's effective against those guys who are faster than you.

[hazbo]

Throw the ring stool at them. Surely that'd stop them.

thts funny as fuk lol yea i'll do tht next time cheers

Keep your eyes wide open and watch your opponents face. Use your peripherals to watch the body, the arms while looking at the face.


That build better timing.

Just concentrate on hiting his body more than the head. Meanwhile keep your defense up while you attack it so you dont get countered.

Practice, practice, and talk to your coach about improving your weaknesses cause he can give you better personal advice than anyone else you will find on here since he knows how you look.

and pressure him.

Thats what I would say too, but you have to work on cutting the ring off and ideally getting them into a corner rather than just following them around. I'm probably not the best to describe how that works, but as I understand it instead of following a guy straight on you move at an angle... i'm thinking you would want to see where he's trying to go and based on his movement and the tendencies you've noticed you move there diagonally to him to cut off that route.

Also if you can get in close try to lean on him and work the body so that he wears down a bit.

An alternative to trying to cut the ring off would be to make him come to you. Thats when timing comes more into play... especially since he'll have to make the first move and expose an opening when he does.

[Raja510]

Go to the body hard and make him fight while going backwards. The guys your fighting sound like newbies, so they won't know how to deal with pressure. Keep attacking the body and a newbie won't want to fight anymore and his punches will slow down. Most new guys also only know how to fight going forward or holding there ground...I've never seen anyone fairly new be able to handle fighting while moving back.

pe·riph·er·al (pə-rĭf'ər-əl)
adj.
Related to, located in, or constituting an outer boundary or periphery.
Perceived or perceiving near the outer edges of the retina: peripheral vision.
So let me get this straight coach, the oponent that is in front of you, you should look him in the eyes, and at the same time use your peripherals viewing viewing abilities to watch his body "which should also be located in front of you"?

but using the peripherals viewing abilities would indicate looking to the extreme left or right side of one

unbeknownst to you and the gulliable that makes no sense at all!

What I mean by peripherals is looking him straight in the face and viewing his body and arms from the corner of you eyes. Plus hooks come from extreme left to right angles.

Whatever the exact definition is it doesnt matter, Im sure he got the point I was trying to give.

You need something better to bitch about.

[JMonster]

use a stiff jab. another main thing is, is to make them come to u, most fast fighters r fast because they r good at countering, making them come to u might change things up a bit

[boxbible]

Best thing against a pair of fast hands is a constantly moving target.

Practice moving the head from side-to-side with an irregular rhythm. Don't forget to jab while you're moving your head.

The combination of constant, irregular head movement and a jab will result in the opponent's own offensive reflexes slowing down a bit. So when he sees an opening, the punch won't get off as fast as it usually would if he had a predictable target. The handspeed would still be the same, but the time it takes to start his punch would slow down.

[achillesthegreat]

The answer to speed is timing. However if you are facing someone who faster than you and better at timing people then you are stuck.

This is when you do a risk-reward assessment and you'll have to do things like punch with him, or be first and last, or let a barrage of shots go so one will land.

In a pro fight you can slow them down by muscling them and ripping the body up. Look at Cotto v Judah, Quintana, Corley and Malignaggi.

Timing can beat Speed and Pressure can beat Speed

Timing. Tempo. Octave. High Note - Low Note. Jazz Theory. Forget it, LoL.
