Well you will have trouble with anyone with 6"inches on you thats only natural ...work on your footwork and getting inside ...that what i would do...but i dont have to cause i am 6ft2

easy. get under their shots and kill their body. hook the body, come up with an uppercut. potshot jabs to the body to bring their hands down, as time goes on & they get tired/relaxed... they may have a tendency to drop hands... then you can bring it body an up... hit the pacquiao v margarito - straight right hand to the body, come up with a left uppercut/left hook, and let your hands keep flowing off of that.

Very simple answer, but very complex procedure. Slip their punches, get inside, and work where they can't get you.
