wladimir klitschko might be the first that jumps to mind. he's so tall he just leans on guys and clinches.

Roy Jones outfought Hopkins on the inside more than once in their first fight.

Generally, guys with a lengthy reach make poor infighters (Ali, Holmes, Lennox, Hearns etc.) Bowe & Liston were the exception.

He also out****** a solid infighter/swarmer/pressure fighter in Merqui Sosa mostly from inside the pocket and stopped him in 2 rounds.
