After some trial and error, I found that a "Gladiator" combat style is pretty decent against this boss, if you don't or can't wear heavy armor / any armor. Havel's Greatshield in the left hand, blocking, with a spear in the right - I used a Demon Spear, but any sort of spear should do.

The shield should take care of any of the ranged attacks and pounces he does (You'll still get knocked over, but you won't be missing a leg from the damage.) and can also be a backup if you get caught in a combo. You can usually bait out his 2-4 hit basic combo while walking backward and poking him through your guard. The wave attack is self-explanatory. :D
