Everyone complains about hugging and holding in the ring...

Khan was deduct points for pushing against Pederson, you have to make it known that you are being grabbed at every opportunity. When you do that from the get go the ref would have zero choice but to start dishing out warnings and point deductions to the grabber.

Well you have to make it known before hand to the ref that you are concerned about that. Then do as you say.


Still there are ways to push without getting Khan like deductions, you need to be slick with it like Floyd with his forearm shove (or using his forearms up so a guy may run into them or if grappling up the forearms is pressing against them causing them pain if the pull too hard in, because how can you penalize someone for running into my forearm).

Dealing with clinching or grabbing is like anything else it needs to be practiced if you want to be able to deal with it.

The Clint Eastwood movies with Bud The Orangutan were pretty funny also

So if you think they funny why you bustin that dude's chops for thinking they funny too??

Because those movies were comedies, there were funny moments between Clint and Bud.

It is not some random still picture of nothing, or something that is really funny in relation to what it was in reference to.

Lowest common denominator jokes are not funny or witty, at least Clint and Bud had some good slapstick.

Can't or won't??????????????????????????????

He's can't do it, he's incapable. Doesn't have the ring IQ. There are fighters who want to bob and weave and avoid punishment by moving their head. But they just don't have the quick thinking to do it in a real boxing fight. They only practice it in the gym. Pacquiao probably practices spinning and turning his opponents when they get too close in sparring, yet he can't do it to Mayweather because he is just unable to implement his gym/sparring tactics in real life. Probably freezes. Funnily enough he really couldn't get Hatton off of him either but luckily his handspeed and Hatton's reckless style of hugging with his chin out allowed him to land that perfect KO punch. Hatton attempted to make it an inside fight by hugging and clinching and punching while on the clinch but his night was cut short. You won't see Weebler complaining about his boy doing this though lol, like in the Tszyu fight as well.

its funny because dey were hugging each other and it reminded me of manny & floyd.

But after a Wlad Klitschko fight, do you post pictures of monkeys hugging each other? Or does Wlad get a pass, he doesn't remind you of a monkey? It isn't funny enough to make fun of an Eastern European fighter being a monkey. It's funny to compare others to monkeys though, right? Subconsciously.

Now that is funny.
