Advice for 1st amatuer fight?

[Sandman1995]

Alright. so when he rushes in at me do a front kick? i cant really kick with my left leg so id probably do it with my right, as long as i could do it fast enough its only 11 days away so im trying to prepare
But the thing is i dont wanna get too many concepts in my mind and be thinking about all the different things you guys tell me to do, but i dont know if ill remember to do them when im actually in there, like the double jab feint third left hook i might not remember, and i dont really know how to feint a jab anyways, im not really there yet, ive already decided after this fight im going straight into boxing matches, and train for golden gloves, and try to get the northwest diamond belt for my weight class (Amatuer) thats my future goal, even if it takes me 3 years.
so i dont wanna get all these extra concepts in my mind and try one of them, and then end up doing it sloppy, or too slow and give him the advantage by overthinking this.. i guess is what im tryin to say haha all tips appreciated though

I personally cant think of anything that would deal with that better is all its reasonably basic.

If you can snap a kick up under someones jaw from below their arms while their mind is on attacking you with their arms they wont see you setting it up.

Ok, you got no left kick?

So he comes in elbows apart swing ,jabbing whatever; you pull your left foot back behind your right foot into switch stance (gives you room to move and gives you the timing to catch him) time it even with a shuffle step fist whatever it takes, then launch your right foot straight up between his arms, come down on him punching or grapple and take him to the ground whatever.

Beat distance with distancing and reach; this is MMA the closest thing to free fighting, you got alot of tools and a lot of distances to work with, much more than boxing.

Same in the streets, if some fools got his fists clenched Im outreaching him with my feet first if possible then at the next distance outreaching him with my fingertips directed at the correct targets. Its basics in getting the upper hand over people who prefer to fight in one preferred distance. Use your feet to set it all up.

Same works the other way too, called 'passing under the hilt', you move in further past their extended fist distance and go into elbows and knee range attack before you take them to ground closer into their balance.

Practice your timing with a sparring partner or a mate.

Dont bust your toes on his chin if you cant pull your toes back and hit him with the ball or heel, go for his solar plexus if you are not a well stretched leg fighter.

Also before you fight stretch out your muscles lightly and warm them up with fast revolves on the joints,then some fast moves, then shake yourself out and get loose hold your warmth in as you walk in with a jacket, never start cold.

Alright will do, and the video will be posted prolly a day or 2 after the fight, and better video quality in 2 weeks, when the actual mma people post it

Thanks, Any last minute advice? my coach was telling me to wear him down and then when hes gassed go in to finish but, i think since that fight hes been working on his cardio so that would be harder to do
