I was doing well and outstriking anyone until today i changed my gym and went to a new one full of professional fighters. I sparred with one of them and found out that i got some holes i need to change . I need your help guys.
First of all I'm a southpaw who use range alot and my stance is very similar to Mcgregor's. What l found other than being countered with big shots always is that my defense which is my best tool have some holes too .
I'm too good at retreating when someone charges at me and hit him easily with a left cross but that was useless against them. I tried it multiple time but unlike other guys who stops as soon as my punch land . They kept attacking me as if my punch didn't matter to them and got tagged with some clean punches. I'm thinking about it and it is definitely an angle issue but how can i change that angle after i throw that flashy cross?
Second, my combos seemed worthless against them as soon as i throw any punch and follow it with another i find myself getting countered with overhands out of nowhere. That sucks getting beat up like that i want some help
