And moving down would be worse because the knee is coming up?
Anderson Silva vs rich Franklin
Wanderlei vs Rampage
Mark Kerr versus Ranger scott?
Knees coming up = nasty knockout and broken nose.

The Muay Thai clinch is not hard to escape i believe fighters think that they are ok for a time and feel safe in it for moments, but then quickly realize and get overwhelmed by it. You can break out of it a few ways, but the best way is to reach your hand under the clinch, swim in and grab the same shoulder of your hand so if your reaching with your right hand you grab their right shoulder, then create leverage and break the grip but twisting your body and pulling back. If i showed you once, you'd be amazed at how easy it is to break out. Something else to keep in mind. Lutter shaved his head for reason vs Silva.
