let him use your balls as speed bag.

Jab is one of the first things to focus on. Not so much the power to begin with, but getting accustomed to the jabbing motion and bringing back the defense quickly.

You can also work on defense and reflexes in a simple way to begin with, and that's using Naseem Richardson's towel technique.

If you gon be helping with training him.

Teach him that jab bro.

Tell him that in the future, if he feels that he can't beat an opponent, make a comfortable excuse like "I think he's on drugs" or "I need a year off" so as to kill the fight
