<br />To me clinch work is the true measure of Muay Thai prowess. I can’t tell you how many times I’ll get thrown to the floor by thai guys weighing 140 lbs and less, it’s pathetic sometimes.<br style="display:none" gauntlet_tokenizer_reserved=""/>

Then to pluhm with Lamsongkram? oooouuuuuiiiiii!I totally agree. Clinching is a whole new monster for those who have never experienced it. I've only competed once w/ full Muay Thai rules, but the guy I fought was a total dud, so I didn't even get to use any type of clinching in a real bout. I use to hate clinch workouts, but I love 'em now.
