What's the best strategy for a really tall, long, thin flyweight?

[Fight To Win]

I can probably walk the little guys down at least in theory, but there's this whole spectrum of footwork and cardiovascular conditioning that also comes into play with how fast-paced even the slowest flyweight fight is. They're like two bees buzzing around angrily, bouncing off of each other with little stings that have a bigger bite than it at first seems. I'm rambling.

So you're gonna face a guy who's 5'6

Bully him and work the body, throwing overhand when he drops his guard/ work the legs

Do NOT let him get distance, you want three quarter range at most

basically you have to be a juggernaut and cut the ring off never letting him get a breathe, if he gets you at the end of his shots they can do damage, up close lanky fighters have trouble

Oh do you mean yourself?

Hug him.

Start bulking.

Anyone over 5'5'' is ducking heavyweight.

Use that reach to keep them on the end of your punches, away from their ability to return fire.
