Opponent with reach advantage.

[VG_Addict]

How do you fight an opponent with a longer reach? How do you neutralize that reach?

I can think of two options off the top of my head.

1. Jump in and get points with quick combos and jump back, backpedal a lot of the fight to keep him out of his range. Win by points.

2. Work on your liver shot and make it an in fight. Shorter reach can be a good advantage in an in fight because you need more compact movements to be effective. If you attack the body then in a few rounds his legs will start to go and he's yours.

Just a couple things to consider.

Feint, angle in, move your head...learn how to box basically. Once you get inside don't jump out, find angles and let your hands go. Lean on him. He's got to push you out and if he doesn't, stay there all day where his reach can't do ****.
