Next time you're shadowboxing, watch whoever is working the heavy bag and pretend the punches he's throwing are being aimed at you. So if he throws a right hook to the head you have to slip/block etc. Do some combinations when he's not punching and practice defense when he starts punching.
Probably best to do it without him noticing lol.
Good idea? You could even do it at home while watching a youtube video or something

I think a large part of the issue was that it was my first one in years and years, and my adrenaline was through the roof.
I've since had controlled sparring since then, and it has improved. What I WANT to do is wade in there and have at it, but we all know that has limited effectiveness and really doesn't help the end-game, which is to be a better boxer.
