I mean that's just the way I like fighting though...I found it annoying how Luis looked for help from the ref, if he had ever seen tape of Ricky he would know to expect that and should be better prepared for it. Besides Ricky got on the inside somehow, Luis let him hold him and sometimes instigated the clinches himself
Just because you know a guy is gonna do it ahead of time still doesn't make him right for doing it.Theres no way to really justify holding and clinching unless your-a) hurt and need to hold on to survive or b) your afraid of your opponents power. I fight just like you and I never have agreed with alot of holding. It shows a lack of skill and confidence. If you can't beat me straight up then what does that say about you.
