Making a good fight plan is all about maximizing your advantages over your opponent.
Here are the common advantages that you may have and the type of fighting you should be choosing.
Strength advantage
You want to close the distance and fight on the inside if you are aiming for a knockout or just dishing out damage.
Another style that is good is to tie up and clinch, it will allow you rest a little and drain energy from your opponent. But you will not get as many punches off if you care about scoring points.
Also remember that weight advantage adds to your strength.
Speed advantage
Feinting is great at getting points as more of your punches will get through. However, it is rather tiring.
Counterpunching gives you less points but this is your style to get the knockout using fast fighers.
Staying on the outside is also an option for faster fighter but do not expect to score many knockouts as you will be peppering your opponent with jabs.
Your height advantage translates into some speed advantage as well
Footwork advantage
You got the better feet, use entire ring. A little more tiring but makes you harder to hit.
Or corner your opponent to the ropes and dish out damage or go for KO.
Your height advantage also translated into some footwork advantage
Mental advantage
If your flare is higher than his concentration you can taunt with greater success. Check his personally type and perform taunts when you need to. (Taunting is discussed in the help file)
Experience advantage
If you have an experience advantage (he is novice and you are seasoned pro or a veteran) you can try to cheat more as you are more likely to get away with it. Still there is always chance you won't. Check the stats for the referee assigned to the fight first to see how strict he is.
Stamina advantage
If you have higher stamina than your opponent you can afford to use highter aggression and try to outpoint him. Even if you are not the speed based boxer the amount of punches with speed based strategy such as feint or outside can still win you the points battle. Expect to miss many of those punches, but if you can afford high aggression you can still get enough points on the number of the punches that land.
Morale advantage
You can also affect the morale of the opponent fighter by making a comment to the media prior to the fight. Remember that morale is a modifier for all attributes in a fight so moral advantage can be important.
Depending on your opponent personality you can damage his morale. If you guess his personality wrong your comment may back fire and increase his morale. Personality attribute is a hidden attribute and cannot be scouted. It is not even known to you if the boxer is in your gym. You can observe boxers before fights and their reaction to comments to try to keep track of their personalities. There are four types (extravert, agreeable, narcissistic and open minded). You get four choices of statements to make to media and each one is effective against one type and counter production against one other.
Other things to consider
What does going to the Body, Head or Cut mean? Targeted punching lowers you punch output but makes your punches more effective. Aiming for the body will drop the amount of punches you will throw but you will deliver more damage to opponent’s energy reserve. Going to the head will deliver more damage to the head to try to get to KO (head hunting). Going for the cuts just means that you are trying to get the fight stopped due to injury, it can be effective especially if you know your opponent has started to bleed.
Other things to remember is that these 3 attributes do not get lowered during the fight as the boxer gets tired (chin in ability to take a punch, explosiveness in ability to deliver a KO punch, and defense as ability for solid boxing defensive fundamentals)
Going to the body is very effective in sapping energy from fighters. If you have a large strength advantage you may finish many fights just by going to the body from round 1 until the opponent has no energy to continue. You do not even have to care about points as you are not likely to outscore these faster boxers anyways. But be careful, push too hard and if opponent has enough explosivness to deliver a punch to KO you, he will.
