Tam if you keep it simple, if you keep it elementary you're going to hammer the crap out of this guy (either guy really). Keep your feet under your shoulders, maintain a good solid base and don't let yourself get off balance. When you throw your left, cover with your right, and vice versa. When you throw a punch snap it back and make sure your defense is tight.
Pump the jab, establish the right cross, do the damage with the left hook...finish off combinations with the left hook as it puts you in a nice defensive position. Be sure to work the body.
Both fighters in your video are like fighters out of Mike Tyson's Punch Out, they are both very rhythmic in their attack and defense. The punches they throw are left, right, left, right...so in your bobbing and weaving FEEL THAT, know that, use that to your advantage especially when throwing counter punches: A jab is coming, slip, counter right, slip their right that's coming, counter left hook, etc. Their head movement as well is also left, right, left, right...very simple, very basic and something you can take advantage of by doubling the jab, using the lead right cross, doubling up on the left hook, digging to the body at the right time.
Mike Tyson had the uncanny ability to lull a fighter to sleep with his metronome like movement....bend left, bend right, bend left, bend right....his opponents would try to time him and once in closer Tyson would bend left, come back to almost center, then dip down left again and this would open up a window for Tyson to land clean hard crisp punches on his opponents. You can time these guys, you can predict how they will throw their punches, and you can catch them blind just keep your base under you, have your weight ready to shift and you'll have them out easy.
If they are hard to catch, or you're having trouble closing distance, tie up, before the ref can break you, initiate the break and let the hands go. Remember it' NOT a foul unless you're punching when the REF breaks you...you MUST initiate the break BEFORE the ref gets there.
Should they catch you, also have a plan if you're hurt. Stay out of "no man's land", either get real close, or get far away, clinch, push off, do what has to be done.
