The Boxing Truth Compuclinch Video - 118 Clinches by Molina

[BoxingGenius27]

There are other ways of stopping them other than blatant fouls and Kirkland doesn't know how so its his fault.

So you're asking Kirk to legally defend against illegalities?

Its up to the ref to stop him from doing that. He needs to issue a warning if he clinches for no reason.

Refs need to start enforcing the rules like this and using your forearm/elbow.

He could get a little sneaky and use some clever tactics of his own, plenty of other things he can do, clenching is a part of the sport whether ppl like it or not and he should be prepared for that situation but he wasn't.

Exactly.

I am not sticking up for Molina nor do I like the clinching, but most fighters do it and good fighters know who to prevent it.

Watch the Zab fight. Every time Paris tried to clinch, look what zab did to him.

I am not sticking up for Molina, but someone can only clinch like that if their opponent allows them to.

One of you people can post video footage of what you refer to when talking about "not letting someone clinch you".

I here alot of yapping and no video footage of what you're talking about.

He made Ricky Hatton look like Sugar Ray Robinson!

Molina - bald guy in red
Kirkland - other guy minding his business

yes it was awful but it don't explain why Kirkland looked like shit in there

Kirkland weighed 198 pounds 1 month ago. He had to cut 44 pounds in 30 days. That pretty much says it all.

It does... clinching can drain fighters. Yes, Kirkland still looked bad when Molina would surprisingly use head movement by rolling under and slipping punches, but I emphasize surprisingly because although it worked so well, he'd rarely do it... instead opting to WWE it up.

The clinch was bad, but what really pissed me was the way he pushed Kirkland to the ropes. At times it looked like the Royal Rumble or a linebacker
