Hey guys, I am new to boxing and I need some tips and strategies. I do possess natural hand speed and quickness, but the problem is i am also the shortest guy in the club by about a couple inches. That also means that I have the smallest reach, so I need some tips on how to fight taller and longer guys. Oh, I should also probably mention that I'm southpaw. Thanx.

Sharpen up your head movement and footwork for getting inside of taller/rangier fighters. I too am a southpaw (5'9") and have fought a handfull of taller fighters, one of which was easily 6'2" or 6'3".
