    He coils out of it so it's hard to time and predict if you are standing in front of him. He usually gauges distance very well too so while you're preoccupied with trying to avoid something he is setting himself to throw. His foot positioning is very subtle

    He does it by taking massive amounts of PEDs, fighting much smaller men (and slapping them with 1-way rehydration clauses), relying on at least 2 corrupt judges, making his poor opponents sign NDAs, and threatening their children with his cartel connections if they try to fight back.
    Clenelo is a nasty, nasty human being :eek:
