how to counter "lean back"

kick to the body, kick to the leg, punch to the body, shove him over, clinch and trip

given the video subject i assume anything goes? You could just kick him in the nuts given the groin is being exposed.:icon_chee
 
I spar with one guy that's a good deal taller than me so if I go for his head he leans back. When he does that I throw hooks to the body. I also try to get him on the ropes and shoeshine him.

If you're fast you can keep moving forward and catch him. I've seen Tyson do it many times.
 
- Double up on the jab. Initiate with a jab and then follow up with a step-in jab.
- Feint the jab, follow up with a step-in left hook or right hand lead.
 
The way he leaned back he was completely out of position to counter or move his feet. That means you can simply take one step forward and hit him with any punch you like.
 
I'm seeing a pattern here.

Something to do with the body and legs.
