    Punch him in the shoulder.

    Other than that, I treat it as a normal jab.

    Pressure, you're going to get hit don't get me wrong, but you're going to hit them alot more by pressuring them

    Your advice is terrible. Whatever you post on here seems to be completely irrelevant to the discussion.

    When someone keeps their jab hand low, I like to hit them in the face.

    Pick the jab and counter with a left hook, if you time it right you will nail him, after a few counters he will be a bit more cautious in throwing this shot.
    Timing is key if he is throwing an up jab you can bend your Knees (if you time him right) and bang the body with a right hand.
    another thing you can do is throw a right uppercut to his elbow as he is jabbing again timing is key once you throw that right uppercut to his elbow close with the left hook.
    Try moving your head side to side and when you slip the jab counter with a right hand or a left hook depending on which way you slip.

    I like this advice. I'm a huge fan of hitting people in the arms and shoulders. And nothing slows down a jab quite like a sore shoulder :) And as JLoveHewitt said, hitting them in the face is always good too. Come right over that shoulder with a hard right. If they roll their shoulder for protection, hit them in the shoulder with your right. Remember in middle school when you and your friends gave each other dead-arms? Same deal. He can't hit you quite as hard or fast if his arms and shoulders are in agony.

    That's a good advice. Cause if you'd meet PBF he'd slip your punch just to land a counter-bomb straight on your button.

    just parries it like a normal jab, defence is no different to a normal jab.

    when they flick the jab up tap it down with your right hand (2 orthodox) and throw the straight right in one motion.

    parrie with your rear hand and jab as soon as you feel contact you will catch them with the jab everytime.

    That ducker would never sign to fight me! But in all seriousness, that's a dumb comparison. Floyd is special, he can get away with that low hand because he's helluva fast. But against the local shlub who only thinks that he's PBF or Ali, punching them in the face works just fine. There's a reason that coaches are always screaming "keep your hands up".

    After reading that sentence I knew the rest of your post can't be better. You didn't disappoint.

    Touched a nerve?

    I don't even post on here, because at least I can admit I don't have any helpful input.

    Now go and put some weight on. *****.
