Tips on fighting taller opponents
I spar against a lot of guys that are MUCH taller than me, I'm only 5'8''. It always seems hard to get them bc of their insane reach compared to mine. I'm 200 lbs , and much stronger than they are and i fight southpaw (although I am right handed). an suggestions on how I could strategize agains these opponents?

You know the score... move your head, get on the inside, you work the body and the head will fall.

you can use volume of punches to go forward and pressure them. You can use speed to nip in, I keep coming back to the same two fights/fighters only because they demonstrate the idea so well. A Mike Tyson when he was young, pressure!, B Mayweather v Corrales giving up height but used speed and angles!
