This is me getting abused in the clinch and getting ko'd by a knee. The fight that got me into learning the clinch. Shit was violent, hope you sadists enjoy
Ouch... Hard way to learn, but probably the best way to learn. Hope you don't mind me pointing out a few other things. If the fight was a long time ago you know them by now, but anyway...
Watch out for mirror strikes. After a hard single strike you throw, a lot of times the opponent will throw the same, to get back the points he lost. He did that a few times at the beginning. I think one time you expected it, from a low kick if I'm not mistaken, but unfortunately you weren't able to catch the leg.
You had some single hard strikes, but you dint capitalize on them. Every time you landed single hard punch, I was waiting for a kick to follow but it never came...
You moved backwards a bit too much. If you have mixed it with a front stop piercing knee every now and then, he would have been more hesitant to pressure from a distance.
Your straights and overhands landed, not your hooks.
About the clinch. Clearly you know by now, but your posture was the main problem. And to tell you the truth, you were lucky he dint use elbows from the clinch, cause he had a few opportunities.
You dint know how to break away, or how to neutralize his movement, to make the referee reset the fight.
He often reached with both hands from too far away to enter the clinch. I think you made him pay one time with an over hand, but most of the times he went unpunished.
You had some nice teeps (except one lazy at the hips I think), but you dint use them much for my liking. It's a great tool to keep clinchers away. (he had some nice teeps too, and timing them good on your punches)
Your knees needed a lot of work.
In a few occasion you could use the shin shield against his knees in the clinch. Kinda hard with those types of ropes, but at the corners at least.
Again, sorry if all those thinks are basic to you now...
