tiny bit of clickbait in the title. This is for the university I attend’s fight night, and my fight (if it happens) would be a friendly non decision (there won’t be a winner crowned) against a friend of mine just to start the night. 3 rounds, 1.5 min per round.

Question still stands, what are some tactics for fighting folks that are significantly taller and more experienced than me? also advice for nerves would be appreciated)

I don’t expect/want to knock him out (not that I could even if I did want to), as I am friends with the guy, but I wanna be able to put on a show for the crowd and be like “this is what I have learned during my time with the kickboxing club”.
