The guy that lost hasn't a good a grasp of distance and range as does the other guy. So he'd step back to far and then his punches would fall short.
When you fight this guy be aware of where your left foot is in relation to his. I would suggest keeping your left foot just inside his, so your are shaded well to your right. When he moves in, comes forward, pivot to your right- even if you slide back turn to your right- and throw your right hand and come back with a left hook. He has a quirk of keeping his head cocked towards his right shoulder and his left shoulder down. When you pivot to your right he will turn to look at you- this will create a lane for your right hand, just over his left shoulder.
