I'd try keep my right foot outside of his and circle to the right. This is good for a number of reasons, by doing so you'll have some good opportunities by staying outside of his left, and you'll be stumbling less when you step to your right.

From there you can take a quick step to the right and hit him with a right hook. Continue with another pivot/step the right to get to his side (this a good position to be in) and if you see an opening throw a hard straight left, or even a left uppercut between his gloves would be good.

Since your opponent brings his hands up to his face, he's not paying much attention to what's coming next. So try a 1-2 to get his hands up, and then step to his side and pop him with a quick right hook to the body or head. I'd also practice following the right hook with a straight left and vice-versa.

Anyways It's not bad to have your right hand down from time to so long you're jabbing, and you're using pivots and head movements to avoid their leads. I'd try to keep it up in the same way that you do when you're about to catch a ball. With it there, you can use it more assertively, both defensively and offensively. You can knock down their jab with your right hand, and then fire the jab over it while you're stepping to the right.

Don't be afraid to jab to the body. The jab to the solar-plexus (that's the sensitive spot below where your ribs meet), gives them sickening feeling that they won't like! Try a quick jab their solar-plexus and then if they bring their hands down, throw straight left. Once they become self-conscientious about the jab to the body, you can feint with your right, which might be just jerking your right shoulder forward and half jabbing, and then if it works hit them with your left again.

I liked how you bent at the waist to avoid their punches, you should watch James Toney's fight with Vasilliy Jirov. He'd lean low to the side under Jirov's southpaw jabs.

Anyways, these are just some of things that you can try.

ayee thanks everyone for the advice..thanks nagal...whats the good things u guys see?

[Youngblood]

Worry more about technique then style. I think u be trying to style too much. That'll come but means nothing until you got good basics down. I don't know your experience but you're gonna get creamed if you run into a good amatuer!

Seriously tho, look for the criticisms and consider their sources. If ya want people to tell u what is good about it, you're looking for the wrong thing. Pay attention to the negatives because fixing those are what is going to improve ya.

you right..but again that was me in jan 09..i changed up a bit....il try to put a recent video of me sparring soon..soo yall good help me out

Keep in mind, I'm not being mean, I'm just trying to help.

1. You didn't throw ONE JAB that entire round. You pawed your hand out as a measuring stick, but you never got behind your shoulder and fully extended the jab, even ONCE.

2. You are NOWHERE near fast enough to keep your hands that low. The guy you were sparring hit you cleanly way too many times that round, and he is NOT that fast.

3. You never truly boxed the guy. You caught him coming in a few times, but for the most part you just stood in front of him. You need to move in and out, then step to the side.

4. Stop waiting your turn. When your opponent finally began to throw punches, you didn't do anything. Just because he's punching doesn't mean you can't. Actually, punching your opponent is many times the best way to get him to stop punching you.

How long have you been boxing and how many fights do you have?
