How do you fight a fighter who is throwing alot of hooks, combos, and is never still?

Answer 1

Cut off the ring and throw a stiff jab!!!!!

Answer 2

Personally I've noticed when fighting these so called "flurry fighters" that you can't back down. Stay close with him, if he sends a combo at you return the favor but time yourself. Also when someone is throwing a lot of hooks tear him apart on the inside. Ever seen Rocky? Haha I know it's a movie but there are some factors that are extremely true in those fights. A fighter who stands there and throws combos/jabs/hooks all fight w/o overall filling his game by goin at the body is an idiot and a loser. A couple shots to the body and you will catch him off guard TRust me. Once he doesn't know what to expect he will leave openings for you to connect w/ uppercuts or dismantling hooks of your own. Good luck

Answer 3

Well, we really need a bit more to go on than that. But a jab and straight right hand obviously has more range than hooks. So a good jab will neutralize lead hooks.

Now if you're having trouble against an active, aggressive fighter, you can't let yourself fall into a defensive shell like Bonecrusher Smith did against Tyson. Even if your opponent is better than you, you have to make a stand and drill him hard. And do that every time he starts to overwhelm you. Watch the first few rounds of Holyfield-Tyson 1 to get the idea. All the great, slick boxers still had to find times during a fight to make a stand against an aggressive puncher. Watch Pernell Whittaker's domination of Chavez to see what I mean.

Answer 4

Stay on your toes and throw straight left jabs but don't let your left hand drop. Keep your right hand up and covering your face/head. Guard against his hook! When he gets too close tie him up as often as possible. Try to get your hand behind his neck and pull down and toward you in clinches. This serves to discourage and confuse him, though the referee will warn you about it. Good defensive tactics are a must against an inside fighter. Use whatever space in the ring you need to stay away from him, but don't get caught in a corner. Cover-up if you need to - then tie him up and lean heavily on him. Try to wear him down and counter punch when practical. If you have trained well defensively you may be able to withstand his attacks until he's tired. One more point; watch for the chance to land your right hand. Try to find a sparring partner who fights like he does, or will at least imitate his moves.

Answer 5

You keep moving as well, and if he throws hooks, then this means he is a power hitter, if you are fast, get in 2 point range (close enough where you arm does not extend but he cant grab you.) Combos is hard to get out of, the only way is dodge those, until you see him get weak, or slow down, and boar on him, whatever you do, do not get to the ground. get him to the ground, w/o you gettin down there, and this sounds cheap but get him while he is down, because he will be too busy blockin to hit back, and do not stop... dont let him up.

Answer 6

If they fought again, Khan would be knocked-out for a second time. Prescott is a murderous puncher and would find Khan sooner rather than later. Within 5 rounds. Don't be swayed by the way he beat Fagan, Fagan was nothing more than an old part-timer. Khan still gets too carried away with himself when he thinks he has someone hurt, and Prescott would lamp him hard just as Khan would start to think that he is gaining the upper hand. Plus there is the psychological factor, Khan would be frightened of Prescott and try to put him away out of fear, and would end up on his back again when he tries to push for the KO.

Answer 7

Alright, you have to go under those hooks, then back up with an uppercut. slip those combos, and make your head a moving target dont let him take a picture! i know this stuff Im a contender and i know how to slow down my opponent. The primary section to hit is the body, that will slow his Muhammad ali ***. You'll have a great technique if you do this; go under those hooks, while you down there make it sting with body hooks ... left, right, left, right! do just that when he is close and hooking and youll be alright, remember to make your head a moving target!

Answer 8

i try to find a pattern but generally i notice people who throw alot of hooks will keep moving back
corner them or push forward while keeping your head down and guard up
allow them sum room to keep throwing and upercut.

i notice that in thrwin big looping punches they leave their chest and chin unproctected. also hooks are slower so when u see them begin to telegraph a hook throw a jab with the opposite hand. or move in and uppercut. or try to throw a punch witht eh same hand before they manage to get theirs off. this will block theiir punch and hit them first

Answer 9

Think of what Frankie Randall did to Chavez on the first fight.Jab follow up with straight right hand and step back one or two steps.The only way he can throw combinations is if you stop and let him do it.By "never still" I assume that he is always coming forward.Boxing him!Also, block his body hooks with your elbows and counter-punch

Answer 10

Stay out of the fighters range till they tire. Than when you see your chance, go in with your own flurry of punches and try to end the fight right there. Hit the body, tire em out, and hope to knock em out.
