Depending on the others commitment (If they are a straight stepper ,reacher or leaner) and you're light on your feet and he is very tired or a bit of a plodder, you can sort of give yourself space as he comes and step around it in little increments and keep control of his left arm around his elbow point as you do it. Give yourself space by retreating with the left foot ever so slightly and going out slightly right as you control their arm with your right glove, then correcting your stance to their new position you get power as they react, cause you have already gone a touch square and take their arm across with your right glove while you step out and as he steps down and adjusts you can attack with your own left hand low, as their left arm goes over your left shoulder. If you can adjust your feet a double left hook will go either side of their left arm, under then over the top of it, the second hook will go above it as it reacts to your first low body punch.
(Ohh imagine if you could trade that first low hook for a left knee instead )

Theres alot to be played with different distances and different reaches and strikes to suit the distances. Even bodily sticking close and smothering their next movement can work well when you are outside of their left arm and in control of their balance right when they react.
