Tell him to go in boxing and not scrapping, keep the hands up and chin in, and most importantly to relax and not to forget to breathe

good advise rooster.id say the same keep out the way,read his style,let him throw punches all about,then pick him off.

The issue is is its hard to read a man's style when he's just throwing bombs.... and people don't realise how hard it is to stay relaxed when someone is trying to hurt you

Id join a boxing gym if hes new to it.theres more to it than swinging hay makers.

how long are the rounds?

 

my advise is to practice windmilling for 1/2 of the lengths of the rounds, then come the day of the contest let the opponent fall into false sense of security for approx 1/4 of the round then start the windmilling.

i think its 3 two minute rounds

Hands up, chin down. Stay calm and breathe.

 

Most important - hit 'em first and hit 'em hard !

You can play football you can play rugby you dont play at boxing if the lad wants to do anything more than have a fun night out tell him to join a boxing club.

interesting you should say that. the lad has always taken his fitness very seriously, and the whole thing started when we were talking about training, and i suggested he should join a boxing club if only to look at different training methods to what he was used to. he came across this white collar stuff when he was looking for a local club on the internet!!
