Go forward instead of backward. Go in at an angle, getting to their "blind spot" or the "defenseless pocket" (different names for the same thing). Use combinations that vary the levels of attack - low middle and high, in a range where you can use elbows and knees.

Basically, try to move like Mike Tyson used to before he stood up straight and tried to knock everyone out with one punch, becoming a punching bag in the process.

Far easier said than done. Accept that you're most likely going to get hit hard and often.

i didn't read the whole thread but to answer the topic,
i asked that to myself as a karate beginner too and the answer can't be found in traditional martial arts. it can just be found in (kick)boxing, escpecially the peek-a-boo style is recommended.
