Sounds like you have use what you got naturally and that sounds like added reach and height. Id go with the people who suggest the jab is the key.
So straight shots ,elbows down for more power and protection against the smaller more in fighter also it will shut him out further (straights out reach his hooks and swings) keep throwing over the top ,(stop his head comming forwards)and hold stance if he gets through the distance slightly just shuffle back a touch but hold your stance and keep firing, dont stop.
Just for starters, so you utilize what you got,
Then do what the others say with the uppercuts etc
if you end up against the ropes , control one of his arms ,fold it into his body and go out and around that same side of him and turn him around as Missy said and pound on him.
You can do that too by clinching momentarily so he is tied up and wizz him around.
OR (More advanced and needs practice)
you can use the ropes.
Spring back by stepping back into them with your front foot going all the way back behind your rear leg and sit into the centre ropes(but just off to the side on an angle),this gets you distance to move ,switches your stance and places you out on an angle for escape and you have the space to throw hard as you leave out the side or turn him around as he follows.
Depending on your distance back to the ropes ;You can just pull one foot back and sit, if your comming off a square stance and are near on touching them, whatever way ,your body becomes hunched and protected,your legs are bent your sprung so your feet are freer to move ,so you just have maintain high cover then catch him hard as you leave or cover and control his arm first and catch him even harder if he turns into face you as you leave.
You can control his right arm with your left arm pushing it across him and then release and follow through with a right uppercut up straight up his centre line as you leave on the outside of his right arm. That sort of thing has you covered completey a your attack has covered the path of his rear arm if it comes and you have hidden your intentions until the last millisecond so your actually doing two or more things at once; Escaping while closing and choking him one side,controlling that arm on that side, slipping it ,hiding your other intention and nailing him as hard as it happens right as you go!
