Stay back.Make him reach for you. Extending fully can slow him down. Attack him while he is extended. Often you will catch the person trying to recover to a defensive set quickly but because he is fully extended and he has to deal with your attack this is often disorienting causing him to take a few hits or lose his balance. Then finish him or retreat back but be careful while moving back not to take hits or let him rush you. Attack his legs. Because they are longer they take more time to get off the ground. Also if he gets too close pick him up off the ground then put him on his back hard. Shorter people have a leverage advantage in fighting. Also know that when referring to differences in speed between opponents its usually only hundreths of a second. So work always on speed, power, and precision.
