Answer 1

IT'S A MENTAL THING BUT I HAVE TRAINED FOR THIS WHICH IS:

HAVE A PARTNER POSITION HIS HANDS AS IF IT'S IN A PRAYER POSITION, AND THE POINT OF THIS IS WHEN YOUR PARTNER MOVES ONE OF HIS HANDS AS IF HE'S GOING TO STRIKE YOU THEN COUNTER QUICK BEFORE HE STIKES, IT IS BEST FOR YOUR PARTNER TO START OF SLOWLY, AS YOU GET BETTER THEN TELL YOU PARTNER TO STRIKE A LITTLE QUICKLY . THEN YOUR REFLEXS WILL BE 2ND NATURE TO YOU , JUST THINK OF IT AS A SPARRRING SESSION

Answer 2

Visualization. There have been many studies on the power of visualization in athletes. If you take a small block of time every day and visualize a hypothetical scenario when someone is about to hit you, slow down the entire thing in your mind, and imagine yourself moving much quicker than the other person. After all, your mind can't tell the difference between what you think or dream and what you actually do.
