    Feedback is welcome, I am aware of my stance being too lateral and going to the ropes is something I'm working on already.

    I am in the red gloves and blue pants

    start popping your jab into the guys belly. feint one to the belly and pop him in his nose, mix it up. there are 2 different targets that you can pounch, why limit yourself to only one target making it just that much easier to defend against you.

    also, you tend to "paw" abit with your jab. if youre going to fire it then fire it.

    mix in more of that quick lead left and roll... then look for the hook coming up.

    mix in changing levels as stated.

    Excellent advise, any advise on how to avoid matching up jabs? Such as ours touching

    Noticed that you catch quite a lot of jabs with your lead hand whereby you bring it quite far forwards - could see you getting clocked with a lead hook off a feint, especially as southpaw vs orthodox.

    Try drawing the lead by using the right hand and fire the straight left as you move your head to the right. Very effective for the southpaw and leaves little for him to come back with.

    Move your head (there is none at all).

    It will help you find angles and you'll get tagged less.

    I don't believe I was getting tagged o_O but I ado agree with head movement, I'm still trying to work on creating openings with angles
