If you can push him down to 80% in four turns, he won't use Black Fang again until Phase 3 (40% HP remaining), at which time it will take him fifteen turns to use it. So if you can quickly take him down to 80%, and then get him to 40%, and then finish that last 40% within 15 turns, he will never use Black Fang.
