    Probably a version of the fight where the ref does what he should and deducts points for holding.

    But yeah, considering the ref didn't do that, Pulev should have gotten the UD.

    Half decent fight Chisora vs Pulev by HW standards. Way too much holding from Pulev though. I don't blame Chisora for the rabbit punching because he was just trying to work inside and you can't when your opponent wraps their arms around you octopus style. The same thing happened with Matthysse against Garcia and Postol. And with Froch vs Dirrell too. Ward, Wlad, Floyd, Pulev today and Marcus Browne the other week, and many others are allowed to get away with this **** all the time and having a biased ref on your side to turn a convenient blind eye to it is absolutely paramount. It's a different fight if the ref won't allow these clinchers to use excessive holding as a defensive strategy. Fact is they're going to get hit a lot more if the ref doesn't let them get away with it which will obviously not only increase their chances of losing but also of them getting KTFO.
