          Generally speaking guys who lower there heads have terrible balance & r without their full field of vision...Proper footwork should counter any head first bullrushers at the gym...

          Also u might wanna try a strong hook behind a 50% jab as well...u don't wanna land to many big shots to the top of anyones head...Throwing the hook should help in avoiding direct contact with the crown of the head & save ur hands in the process...

            Push his head to your left with the left jab....right hand to the left temple.
