Keep this in mind, in a fight, whether it be a competition, or a self defense , the skill of the man/woman in what they know what to do determines the fight, not the style. Strikers 1. Use a variety of low kicks to the shins, knees, thighs, and if the Boxer is worned down or, kick to the abdomen. Only kick to the head if you can catch him/her by surprise, or when he or she is tired and is unable to defend quickly and effectively. 2. Do not go toe to toe, unless you have the hand skills to do so. This is the Boxers area of expertise, Hand striking. Only punch to either set up a kicking attack, or to counter his punches. 3. Keep moving. Although Boxing stresses footwork, many Boxers do not use footwork as they should. 4. Depending on whether it is in a regulated bout or No Holds Barred, USE WHATEVER IS ALLOWED. Fists, Elbows, Foreams, Feet. Shins, Knees, Shoulders, etc.) The more weapons you use, the more options you have to defeat a Western Grapplers 1 SHOOT IN IMMEDIATELY. Do not give them enough time to fell you out, as Boxers tend to do. Take them down at their legs and apply your submission move(s). 2. If fighting a fast and furious puncher, bait him/her to throw a strike, dodge the initial blow, if possible, and then take them down, and submit them. 3. Get them down to the ground by any means neccessary, as rules permit in competition, in the street, anything goes. 3. DO NOT STAND TOE TO TOE! YOU WILL LOSE!
