    well i boxed this guy a few days ago and beat him with a strong straight right. he wild swings like crazy. what would be a good defence to his wild swingging to beat him where he would think twice about boxing me again?

    Body work. If he swings wild, he will leave himself open to a left hook to the body, left hook to the liver will put anybody in their place.

    but this also means i will get hit too...haha i dont min at all. but i have a problem with when somebody is wild swinging at me and they're conecting then i wont look..ill take it...i think i should pressure him and come in with him wild swinging and hurt him a few time with some body shots untill i find that perfect KO shot, then take it

    Jab, footwork. Let him walk right into your jab. Show him angles. You'll eventually find your opening and put him on his ass :good

    My first thought is that if you are technically superior and your conditioning is on point, be content to outclass him and don't force the KO. From what I'm understanding, it sounds like you want to "make a point", which is cool. You can also make that point by just winning. Counter the **** out of his windmilling garbage, but stay sound defensively.

    :good

    Keep the hand high, chin tucked, time him with the jab in between his wild shots. The jab will make him have second thoughts and it will keep him off balance. Keep your composure, stay relaxed, pick off shots, go under his hooks and counter to the body and the head. After you land a shot or two, move and make him reset.

    These wild, uncontrolled guys were always my favorites to fight:yep

    Aw man, you got this one in the bag. Use the jab for a round or two, circle, keep an eye on how he likes to move inside, then start catching his short ass coming in. But like Mark said, keep that chin tucked!

    Man would that be cool to be in a "boxing family"... I've just got to settle for being a fan.

    Welcome to the board. :thumbsup

    if he is a wild swinger, just keep that jab extremely straight, 2 jabs and the straight right, with all those wild swings you will connect most of the time.

    Only advice I can add on would be to not let him throw you off your game (and become wild yourself). Stick to technical boxing and keep your cool and you shouldn't have any problems by the sounds of it
