Thought you did well. Need to jab more - especially as you were so much taller. Doubling it up would have kept him on the back foot. Also not much head movement. Reflexs and speed are good though.
Thanks for critique. Ya in hindsight I agree I should jabbed more. Should have been more aggressive as well, I'm used to sitting back and countering but he wasn't really coming forward and giving me those chances. I should have tried to cut off the ring and get him in a corner IMO. Bump for more critiques.
got a few hings. Like above said, more jabbing with that arm length advantage deff more jabbing and theres something that follows along with this that I'll follow up on in a sec. You used your height advantage fairly well in a deffensive way, I don't think he caught you clean too many times simply because you stayed up top and didn't allow him to come in with any clear shots. But more jabs would help, if you notice whenever he tried to jump in and your hands were out there he felt a threat dropped his head so as not to get hit and windmilled. You could've taken a lot more advantage of that but once again I'll come to this in alittle bit. His deffense was a little flawed and there was a few moments there where when he blocked your one twos where he raised his guard to apoint where his gloves were above his head clearing his whole body, you could've taken advantage of this and gone one two or one one, he raises his guard you do a body shot. I realize this is the amatures and often body shots don't count for much but you hit him with a solid one and it'll at least slow him pretty good. Now your foot work seems to be the most lacking. You take slow jumps backwards, try mix it in with a few side steps especially after jabbing where he drops his head and cant see you. You sidestep after a jab when he comes rushing in and when he looks up again your no where to be seen. I deff think your footwork could use a little work as it seems to be the most lacking part.
Thanks for critique. Agree with pretty much everything. I saw the thing where his guard was too high but being so much taller its physically quite difficult to throw a body punch that low. I think if I landed one it would be good just to lower his hands and expose the head again. Agree footwork is poor. Not sure how to improve it though. EDIT: just realised I'm pretty flat-footed. Need to get up on balls of feet.
Remember the basics on how to move your feet. Stay on the balls of your feet and remember to stay active. Once you feel comfortable and your moving on the balls of your feet I suggest watching pro fighters with your height who have proven good foot movement. Try not to follow unorthodox boxer like Roy Jones but more technically safe boxers. Once your see what sort of movements (side steps, lounges, backwards lounges, etc.) they make repeat those movements when shadowboxing, sparring or doing bag work. Try do them faster and faster but remember not to give up balance and form for speed. Keep repeating those movements and with time you'll increase the speed. A lot of things in boxing are about repetition of specific movements until you internalize them and they become second nature, you have to keep this the same and even though you may seem worse then average to begin with (not sayin you are) then with enough work you can become very good.
Ya, keeping the hands up is a problem. I find it limits my vision. Footwork is now a priority. That was my 3rd fight.
You have a good style, certainly something to work with. You tend to draw your left hook back and slap with it; that needs to be corrected. On occasion you bring your right foot up and get square after throwing a right hand. Stop doing that, and get more snap in your right hand. More pop in your jab wouldn't hurt. You should develope a right uppercut, where you can slip inside and hit an opponent like that, keep him honest in close. Here's what is important, though. That guy came forward plenty, you made him miss...When he reaches with a punch and comes up short, you must, 100% make him pay. Part of that is inexperience, but you need to start conditioning yourself to do that right now. Part of that is that you tend to move straight back, and a bit too far. Turning an angle as you pull back cuts the distance and keeps you in range. Here is the thing about moving straight back; do it if he'll follow you. Early on, slide straight back and see what he does. If he comes straight after you, remember it. Then turn on him, and give him angles from there on. At some later point, go straight back, and, when he jumps after you, drop a right hand on him.
