Streetfighter or boxer?

[Maxgaggi]

I sparred on saturday against two guys with no technique at all, however, they were two huge guys which came swinging from the first second to the end of the third round.
I didnīt know how to react to be honest. Iīm used to sparring with lighter and more technical guys. Iīm 75 kg, spar with national champions but theyīre about 60-65 kgs.
One of these guys was a tall 84 kgs and the other was 77.

I threw myself in the fight and it didnīt go really well. The ring was also small so really nowhere to back up.

I let their coaches know I wanna spar them again this saturday, I got freakin angry after the sparring, it wasnīt an ass whooping, but I wasnīt able to box as I know.

Maybe tie them up i.e. like holyfield v tyson dont let them get their shots off or if they are too big and if they manhandle you in clinches then get close to them i'd assume and unleash some sickening bodyshots which will probably make them more slower and methodical which would probably be where you are more in your element. Get in and out quick like pac v margarito

Note - I am not a trainer but this is what i have seen throughout my years of watching numerous fights....

Think of Cotto's strategy against Mayorga - i.e., even a wild-swinging brawler like Mayorga can hurt a skillful boxer/brawler in Cotto with basically any punch, no matter how crude his technique is. Cotto's and Steward's strategy? Don't let Mayorga (the heavier guy, in your case) dictate the direction and pace of the fight.

Even if you block the punches, they're going to hurt you, because you're taking the shots on your arms and gloves. You need to be elusive. Use lateral movement instead of moving back in straight lines. Use short punches - that's the key. Be textbook with your shots - throw them straight down the middle, very short. Be the first one to land and keep changing angles. Move out of the way, but do so with angles, not backing straight up.

well if they have no technique then they must not box much and if they don't box much then their stamina has to suck.

so i would move, keep them @ bay with jabs, tire the mother****ers out, and then pick them apart.

when i whip pitos ass watch my technique.

[Maxgaggi]

lol is this an answer?

Whip that jab out as often as possible. If they're swinging, then their shots are easy to see coming. You should be able to predict what they're going to do next, as soon as he goes to throw something wild - throw some hooks. Everything they do is telegraphed, make them pay for it, and they'll think twice. Plenty of movement too.

Sounds like a good opportunity to work on your defense and counter punching skills..If the ring is small it's no favor to a ranged style...Wild swinging brawling styles are great to counter or even better to Beat to the punch..The key is mid range straight punches mostly the right. If I fight a brawler that throws a lot hooks I come back with a little street defense...Active forearm sweep to the side to deflect, then counter with a straight from other arm and hide behind shoulder maybe drop a little height rinse and repeat. It takes ages for a well deflected hook to return to firing position...Your open to a straight with a active arm defense like that but some people cant throw a straight punch..at all..Exploit it..a lot.

this mma gym I spar/box alot of mma guys that have like a very poor brawling technique and they come swinging at you ,but i find easy to take the piss out of cause their punches are so wide and you see them coming by a mile...best way to stop anybody like this are long straight punches i find

At the start of sparring the first guy, put out you hand like you mean to touch gloves and then kick him hard in the shin. This will let them know that you mean business.
