What difference does his race make?

@dfc100,
Here's a mature answer: Don't fight him at all. Resolve your differences like an adult.

@dfc100,
Forget the head. If you don't already know about body punching, it's a bit late for this fight. Not too late to start training for the next.

@dfc100,
The thing you DON'T want to be doing against a taller adversary is the kind of thing Miguel Cotto does i.e. just sort of lower your head, cover your face with both hands in Cus D'Amato's celebrated "peek-a-boo" fashion and try to just sort of push your way into body-punching range.

The man who wrote the book on bullying and stomping people bigger than himself was Roberto Duran, who was arguably the greatest professional prize fighter of the modern age. Duran closed distances with skip steps which appear to have involved pushing off the side of the trailing foot the way skaters do, and by coming in behind two or three punches which were scary enough that he wasn't going to get hit in the act of coming in, i.e. he was using that overhand straight right the way a serve/volley tennis player uses a hard serve and coming in behind it.

Duran eventually scared everybody close to his own size into the woodwork and had to start beating up progressively bigger people to make money at it. When his first fight against Ray Leonard took place in 1980 in Montreal he didn't quite have the physical strength to knock out the bigger kinds of welterweights, that came a year or two later. But you can see the idea of what I'm talking about in the second round of that one. Duran usually threw punches in groups of three, jab, straight right, and a left hook to the liver or the head; in the middle of the second round, Duran was closing distance with that combination and Leonard managed to get out of the way of the first two punches but in doing so ended up with his head all the way back and unable to avoid the third punch which all but totally clocked him:

Is this boxing (in a ring, with gloves) or a street fight?

@dfc100,
dude , dont worry about hitting his face till hes on his knees or on the ground an stomp him

Stomp his feet hard really hard n break his toes
kick him in the balls
hit him in the throat
stand with ur back to wall if possible
if you get it on him choke him out , but put 1 arm behind his head he will go out faster
aim for his chin and i mean aim
every punch aim behind were your target is -punch through him

keep ya hands up an keep covered , its all about footwork , its easier to dodge a punch then to block 1 , step out of his reach and then go in quick an hard and once you get the advantage dont stop

but dont just hit him in the face , stomp him an tell him to not get up till u walk away

or just aim every single punch , aim for the cheek , the chin , the nose ,

learn what a hammer punch is and break his face

Smile train a lil - start shadow boxing . get urself in the zone Wink
