i am a tall lanky fighter and i to had that problem for a while. In the end it all comes down to footwork. Make that jab really strong. Make them really not want to hit it so you dont need to throw a shit jab a billion times and waste all your energy. This whole time keep circling them so they have to keep changing there angles. if they finally do get close to you, grab them and push off and start over. it takes a lot of practice with the foot work but you just have to remember to never stop moving! also mix it up and as your moving at random times stop and throw a good hard combination at them, then get out as quickly as you came in.
