Josh Barnett

clinches WAY too much.

Does this bug the crap out of anyone else?

Not me, clinching is not nonsensical when you face someone like Aleks. I enjoyed the fight very much.

His striking was inferior, he had to clinch as a defensive measure.

Exactly.. Barnett looked super quick relative to his usual speed BUT Aleksander has FAAAR superior striking and he was schooling Barnett. Barnett's strategy was to tire Aleksander and that's exactly what happened. I'm pretty sure Aleksander trains really hard and even in high altitude so I don't know what the hell he can do to increase his stamina. Maybe he doesn't breathe properly during the fight.

M. Ali did this to tire people out and when he did it, it was strategic. In MMA, somehow it's stalling.

If Alex hadn't gassed he would have won. He was tooling Josh on the feet. But, Josh had a good game plan, push the pace and make him throw all the time.

Seriously. People see Aleks gassing, but they don't realize that it was Josh that MADE him gas. I was picking Barnett when everybody said Aleks would run through him. The difference between Josh and most heavyweights is that he is an intelligent fighter, rather than a powerful fighter.
