Lesson

I really want controlling the distance well in bout 1 and 4. In the first I was following and looking for opportunities instead of trying to create opportunities. In the 4th I was following the opponent's  pace. Mid way though I changed up my pace and took control of the initiative, I then reverted to the distance and speed I like. He was hitting me in my preparation as my first step was too big, as I was rushing.  I started to go more direct while setting up that I woudl go for a broken time attack. they set him up for simple actions.
