    It's not legal. It's a foul that refs will allow guys a grey area for infighting. This is why guys will lose points for excessive holding and clinching.

    Wish Steve Willis was reffing tonight instead of Jack Reiss.

      Jack Reiss is one of the best referees he could have possibly got for this fight. Jack Reiss is one of the only refs that takes points away for clinching or holding excessively.

        We'll see. Jack loves to make himself the center of attention, and is also an A side ref. I'll be happy to be proved wrong though.

          How can you possible call an upset when you predict that the champion is going to win? It sounds odd to me.

            Hey!!! Alot of people paid good money to watch Jack ref this fight and take as much attention away as possible from the fighters or whatever they're called.

              Very simple. Haney is a -480 betting favourite

                Lmfao
                Hoping Reiss don’t make it about himself and actually lets the infighting happen , obviously without the clinching or in this case the huggy

                  Agreed! On Draftkings a 50$ bet returns you 200$. I jumped on it last night! Hoping for a great fight!

                      It's not a clinch, in fact Haney created the new compubox statistic: power hugs landed. No one can escape the innovative technique​
                      That's it and "dancing" so he doesn't get knocked out​
