Looking good. Here's little things I tried to figure out from the video, you're by no doubts a better boxer than I but i've got the side of being an outsider looking on etc so any recommendations I make are purely made on being someone who takes a great deal of interest in strategy watching a video;
1) Now you see at 0:06 seconds you have him controlled, by this I mean you are clearly the one who's going to hit first (which you did). Now look at his guard, it's the type of guard I prefer except he's kind of got it wrong. A tight guard is one which is upright and at about nose/eye level. Now I prefer to tuck my elbows in, makes me more compact to move but it also covers my body. He has his elbows out wide meaning his body is wide open meaning his face is tightly guarded, his body is open. So when you went in with that jab you should have taken it right at his stomach. This would have brought his guard down.
2) You're doing good with your movement and you're conserving energy whilst he was kind of doing some random stuff, at one point he moves his head but he wasn't going in to hit nor were you swinging. The fact he does this means he's thinking ALL of the time, which means he's working slowly, get me? Now when they are like this, the best thing to do in a fight is to take the centre and let them move/jump around like a rabbit on crack, they'll soon get tired.
3) Hurt him. It seems that you were watching what it was he was doing and how to block it than deciding how the fight was going to go.
4) Stand firm. You're a big guy, he's a big guy aswell but you're big enough not to get pushed back with some of the hits he threw which on two occasions (at 1:39 in so far) you've been on the ropes. This isn't because he's outboxed you or is stronger, but because when he came at you, you backed off and found yourself stuck. Utilise head movement and side stepping more, also stand firm, raise your guard and fight.
5) Watch from 1:50 onwards, you will see how he dominates the centre and makes you move around him, then he had you. This is what I meant in 2) do this to him.
All in all you seem good but you need accept you're going to get hurt and go in for the attack more. Was just giving you some key points which i'm sure you know, it's just i'm an outsider so I can maybe spot them easier.
Hope these help.
