Parry it down and counter. Or just take a few jabs to get on the inside of him. -
hold out your right hand... ala roy jones jr... it will block site of his jab... but ALWAYS, and i mean ALWAYS be prepared to bring that right hand back to the side of your face incase of a left hook..
also lots of head movement, random head movement, dont make a pattern...
but holding the right hand out works... ive tried it, multiple people ive sparred told me they found it hard to use there jab when i did that...Comment

i dont mean hold it out fully extended....Originally posted by P4PKING_2008 View PostIt is also illegal
hold it out in front of you a little bit.. not right next to your face.. basically block his sight with it... not fully extended though because that is illegalComment

what he said. I hate it when a guy can take my jab, and just runs inside on me. especially if he's a better infighter.Originally posted by P4PKING_2008 View PostComment

man i feel your pain
a few weeks ago i sparred for the first time. my trainer put me up against a guy who was about 5 inches taller, faster and more experienced. i felt like tito when he fought winky... and its funny cause i was trying to emulate winky
i asked for advice and all he said was to move my head - i was thinkin to myself "wtf is that all the advice you got?" he doesnt speak that much english so maybe he jsut couldnt describe what to do
after thinkin about it i realized i shouldve snuck in at angles, doubled and tripled my jabs to get in closer, and parryComment

use wladimir's chopping punch. it is a legit martial technique - although usually used combined with a forward force and with full body force behind it has a strike to the head, etc.
if you learn how to relax your arm and drop momentum through it it will literally feel like your arm was hit with a baseball bat.
i only bring this up because there are some good tips already given - so i thought i would throw something unusual in the pot.Comment

You can usually just lean back a little bit and counter with a right, specially if it is a lazy jab. Head movement! Or just parry it and counter with your own jab/straight right.Comment
