I got owned

the positive is that you know you can do better, you know you didn't stick to a plan. Next time make a conscious effort to box smart.

Will indeed!

Believe it or not, what I neglected to do was be aggressive!

Ended up staying on the outside and getting my eye shut with a punch. It was nice and competitive til I couldn't see the jab coming.

Back in karate class, I had a serious problem with not being aggresive enough.

Another thing I've found is you can't always be afraid of being hit (don't know if that was a problem of yours or not, but it has helped me in the past). Don't be scared to hit him, even if it means you may get hit.
