Dealing With Aggressive Brawlers
When dealing with aggressive fighters who relentlessly pressure forward, you want
to use the long guard to keep them outside your pocket and staying in long range.
If your aggressive opponent gets into your pocket, that's where they are at their
best. They are in range and free to swing wild for the knock out. Fighters who are
aggressive and like to pressure forward are usually fighters who are very athletic,
strong, powerful and explosive. They often depend on their athletic ability to win
the fight.
Most people find it very difficult dealing with this type of fighter, but I find it can
actually be easier. These types of fighters constantly move forward, allowing you to
essentially land anything you want. You will however, need footwork, timing and a
lot of cardio!
