Dealing with brawlers in boxing?

Posted at: 2015-04-20 
most brawlers are bothered by solid, consistent jabs, speed, and effective body attacks

of course, you have to be strong enough to defend their brawling attack

See Lennox Lewis vs Michelle Tyson.

See Buster Doulas vs Tyson

See Larry Holmes and Mohamed Ali vs Earnie Shavers and Ken Norton.

Bernard Hopkins style is good if you're a short arm fighting a street brawler.

It's all about running away and blinding him with a harrassing jab as to keep him at the end of the stick leash. If he comes in head first, R uppercut or left hook could do too. It's all about not allowing him to be successful and stalling the fight to win it later. But if you're not mean and stubborn, the he and the crowd will get to your sorry @ss early.

the best way to beat a brawler is to be smart in other words fight with skills, stick, move, slip, counter, clinch, wrestle a bit, lots of jabs, brawl once in a while but not too much. always think about what you are going to do & do it. to illustrate: a matador is always in control of the bull fight, he stays close but not too close in other words the strong conquers the weak but the smart conquers the strong!

Move left and right. I hate fighting brawlers I feel cornered. But just breathe and stay calm and move side to side to tired him out. Then box the s.o.b.

Counter Punching, defensive ability, moving your head and exploiting their aggressiveness using speed and timing.

You can't get hit. You can dodge the first punch, and the second punch, and even dodge 100 punches, but if he lands his 101th punch on you, it's light's out. Just remember that you can't get hit, no matter what.
