    Floyd clinched appx 13 times in 36 minutes. Wlad clinched appx 96 times in 36 minutes. Some of you guys are unbelievable!!! If it happens excessively, yes, points should be taken away but you guys always have a problem. First you guys talk a whole bunch of crap and then when your hero loses, you guys come up with more and more excuses.

      I'm glad Floyd didn't clinch a lot in the fight. People are still trying to use it as an excuse but it's not a valid one. It was a clean fight, no elbows and not much clinching. For a reference, Matthysse clinched more in his fight against Provodnikov.

        This has nothing to do with attacking Pac/ floyd/Wlad.


        I've been against fighters exploiting the clinch since the beginning.

        If you don't bring anything to the table, keep it moving.

          Floyd easily beats Manny.

          The system needs an overhaul.

            My problem is it's so inconsistent based on the ref, so because of that yeah. Just watch Klitschko to see how badly the rules need to be enforced better. He wins largely because of clinching.
            Thats a good point, Wladamir fights nearly turn a complete 180 because of excessive clinching is being allowed by one ref, we nearly saw it against Jennings.

            Thats the thing, the ref shouldnt do the fighters job and bail him out every time he's against the ropes and decides to clinch. It should be up to the fighter to get HIMSELF back to the outside.

              I voted no. If you get clinched and are held, you have two choices. One, you wait for the reff to seperate you from your opponent. Two, you do the Crawford anti-clinch wiggle.
