    tell him if he's worried about his damn nose than bring his hands back to defensive positions quickly and be good about defense. if he doesn't throw back he gives the opponent more and more chances to break his nose. simple.

    Its not that easy to get a broken nose. Ive seen plenty of bloody noses and only two broken ones.

    Don't expect to get a jab and suddenly your nose breaks.. its quite hard, bloody noses are easier tho

    Throw a ball around the gym and have him chase after it, this will help with his speed.

    & after he got the hang of the exercise tell him bark, this increases reflexes and speed at the same time

    Three things.
    1)If he's good then whats that problem exactly?
    2) No such thing as too much defence the name of the game is hit and don't get hit
    3) You dont win amature fights by round or throwing more. You win by out scoring your opponent with clean shots.......... IF he has good defence he won't be hit that much so not a problem.
