stepping in with jab?

There is inside fighting and outside fighting.
It is confusing, really they should of termed it ' distance' and 'in fighting' so that then we could use the term inside for being inside both the guys arms and outside for being on the outside of either one of his arms. I think it would make life alot easier when talking shop.

Fighting inside is when your inside your opponents arms,throwing hooks to the body,uppercuts,and maybe a cross,and pressuring them.
Hopkins is very good at fighting inside,Tyson when he was younger was

Ok so from that inside position .. if one of his arms pressures one of mine and I let it come inside and i side step and maintain the same distance head to head and bring his arm into my centre so that now im still nose to nose but Im on the outside of one of his elbows so that Im square and can punch him with both hands but he cant punch me with any of his for that second cause Im over the outside his elbow.
Am I then considered outside fighting? even though Im still nose to nose?
