Inside/outside refers to the elbows, if you're inside his elbows you're gonna get beat up, with his fists, outside he has nothing because elbows are not allowed in boxing.

No backhands in boxing either. If southpaw, circle towards your opponent's right. His back. The jab can't hurt you as much as the cross. I'd rather eat a jab than a cross. If the opponent is orthodox, circle towards his left.

He has to turn, set his foot then throw the cross. All that buys you time for a counter of your own.

Your movement is conditioning your opponent because he is trying to anticipate where you're going to be. Use that to your advantage.

Strike him then cry out in pain. Seems like an historically successful strategy. That or sell tickets to the fight that you're not in.

In boxing, you're wearing gloves, you can't use your lead hand to grab your opponent's wrist, and pull him into your punch. That's probably illegal in most types of fighting.

The martial arts is essentially the art of war and peace. We learn the art of war and the art of peace. We use the art of war to achieve victory, victory is won through strategy, strategy is derived from the art of peace.

Depends. Size makes a big difference on inside/outside fighting. Speed does also. There's a reason that several of the greatest fighters of all time were outside fighters.

Lomachenko always seeks the outside, that's why he creates angles. He knows.

Same with Lennix Lewis, and (arguably) George Foreman

Yep! Your feet and elbows define the in/out box of your body. If both fighters are in the same stance orthodox/southpaw, you want your big toe next to your opponent's little toe. Otherwise you're squaring up and putting each other inside.

Dont lead with your eyes

His eyes can't hurt you, don't focus on them focus on the shoulders and feet.

Look at the ref, and then he'll look at the ref, and then punch him when he isn't looking at you.
