Fighting real tall fighters

[iksrtfo]

I have only been back in the gym a few weeks and con not perform as well as I did before. I have been sparring a tall guy who is not as good as me techiniqely
but beats me because he is 6'2 and I am 5'7. I can't get past his jab. I used to steam roll over him by slipping and rolling his jab but I can't move that well yet.
My question is what should I be doing while on the outside? I don't want to just wait for him to throw a jab. I can't land anything from the outside.

I don't know if your any good at blocking or parrying jabs, but if you are, what I usualy do is do that and quickly throw my jab and duck while taking a step in, just incase a second jab is coming. Be careful of his uppercut though.

If you really can't get inside maybe you should lure him into throwing a power punch, make him miss, and counter. If you can't get on the inside, make the inside come to you.:D Or maybe you could get him to think he's pushing you back. Make him follow you to the ropes and once you're there and he's with you, still thinking he's the one that got you against the ropes (that makes him confident and will make him get closer to you)..step around him and push him towards the rope a little from the side with one hand...You know what move I mean right? I think Mosley did it to Collazo a few times. Then you got him with his back against the ropes, which will make pressuring him a little easier AND you'll immediatly be closer to him right after you pull off that move.;)

try moving in and out of range while throwing jabs while going under his. dont let him control the fight which would be easy to do so with his size. keep working on slipping the jab very useful obvisiouly
