Forbes is just a pure boxer and doesn't like to engage that much. I think Tyrant was right that maybe he was keeping him close to some work. In other fights i've seen him not clinch and do some good in fighting. Holding is not something he's done very much in his previous fights.
You think it was forbes style that caused this fight to look ugly? I think so too because I thought Berto did an amazing job in his previous fight and I don't recall much clinching in those ones.

Yeah pretty much. I know he could fight Collazo next so it could kind of look the same way, but against other fighters that like to mix it up and fight more instead of box I bet he'll have a lot less clinching.

I think Collazo will be more offensive minded than Forbes which will provide more opportunities for Berto to hit him. It will be a completely different fight IMO.
I think both of them clinch alot, I think thats there style of boxing. Neither of them threw that many punches. There punch stats were like about dead even on how many punches they threw, I believe both were said to have thrown 600 punches... Thats bad when you compare it to someone like Cotto/Margarito who I believe have thrown almost up to 1,000 or more punches in there fights. He has nice speed though, but he takes breaks too often... He wouldn't last long against Margarito, and Williams at all.
Berto's style is not to clinch, you've obviously watched little of Berto before.
