I think they're easier that way.

All I do is put on my ear muffs and walk towards them.

I push my way inside and find the body.
When at very close quarters a random opponent will not be able to retaliate effectively and his random punches will have little chance of penetrating your guard.

lol I should actually be answering this question honestly cuz i have about 20 retard friends who like to strap on the gloves in my basement every weekend to see if they can last a little bit.

I just play the counter against em (backaway from the wildness, look for a spot), and it is a feint right, left hook every time using the range that usually does the trick. Or a straight right thru the middle, left hook. Either way it don't last long.

I do the same, often inexpierienced guys just come in throwing bobs, it's a good test f defense so I allow them to whale on me to start, they tire easily then I just jab and cross the body until they give up.
