New Guy Needs Help

[xxzildjianxx]

Hey guys, I am new to boxing and I need some tips and strategies. I do possess natural hand speed and quickness, but the problem is i am also the shortest guy in the club by about a couple inches. That also means that I have the smallest reach, so I need some tips on how to fight taller and longer guys. Oh, I should also probably mention that I'm southpaw. Thanx.

mike tyson peek-a-boo defense. bob / weave/ slip and keep moving forward with hard shots. dont let them stay on the outside get inside and stay there and then work hard!

Find a coach who knows how to train a man to fight small. You can learn a thing or two by watching some of Mike Tyson's videos, but you won't know how to evaluate what you are seeing. We all have a different style, but the basics remain the same.
