this is where a variety of kicks helps.
if your sparring partner keeps a tight guard and you are using karate style round kicks, you're going to lose. however, if this is the case, start throwing more of a thai style rnd, but don't aim for his ribs,aim for his arms,and the acrual bend of his arms.a couple well landed thai kicks to the arm will loosen him up.if you hit where the arm bends,usually it will drive his elbow into his abdomen. uncomfortable as well.
