Marquez doesn't like to clinch much, does he?

    Very accurate. Beristain is a very fundementally based teacher that always preaches on keeping your hands up and shoot punches in perfect form and angle. However since so many people violates and abuse holding they should get with the program for defense.

    :lol::patsch says the guy named JCC is overrated.

    With an avatar of Morales down against Pacquiao too lol. Obviously your an extremist Pacquiao fan that hates anything that isn't Pacquiao. It's pretty sad actually. You're missing out on some pretty good boxing.

    Marquez rarely "squares up" in his stance. He always keeps his body at the proper angle. This naturally keeps your opponent from being able to clinch you without opening themselves up to shots up the middle, i.e. Marquez's beautiful lead uppercuts.

    Although, if he was really used to clinching, I think he could have avoided two of the three knock downs against Pacquiao in their first bout.

    only amateur.

    Thing is clinching is illegal. just no one gets punished. if your in enough pain that you need to clinch take a pain and lose a point
