either counter his punches,
or jab ALOT until you get him in a corner,
then throw a faint, a right, then left to the body,
follow up with any punches you want.
itll work.

What's the best way to deal with him moving around, how can I take advantage of this because he also is defending while moving and not much else.
Dont follow him, just cut him off. Move lateral in the direction he is circling to. That will make him end up against the ropes and/or cornered. Thats when you ****. Keep your guard up though and be on your toes. If he likes to circle/dance he is gonna like to jab.
Dont worry about jabbing to move him. Let him move, you cut him off. When you get back in punching distance, ****. Then repeat if he keeps moving.
Its the basics. Everyone is telling you to jab. Dont, its a waste of energy. Because your still following him. Cut him off and then do work.

If you’re a southpaw and he's orthodox and moving to his right you should be thrilled. He's moving directly into your left as you cut the ring off while limiting his own right hand. Remember not to waste too much energy, let him do the work for you. If he wants to circle without engaging at all let him circle, than when your ready quickly move laterally to your left and engage him. If he's moving right and inexperienced you should be able to use lead straight lefts very effectively as even experienced boxers can get themselves in big trouble moving right against a southpaw.

lol my style of fighting is circling around, trying to bob and pressuring by using combos.
Now i've had people face me with that similar style, and i just cannot beat it myself.
Some tips i can give is to hit him with some stiff jabs, and try to plow him in the corner, and while you pressure him in the short distance, TRY TO MOVE
DIFFERENT ANGLES, to make him uncomfortable, and also bob your head.
This may seem like a lot of steps, but it all fits together if you have it down properly.
