Four Paths to Clinch

I was just daydreaming about this today and so I thought I'd jot a note about it. By no means an end all analysis of clinching, just some thoughts on the topic:

Between Hands (Centerline Path)

Use the "Pinocchio Stance" with one arm extended and the other in a high guard (protecting head). Use extended hand to control midline and then sequence the hands to the neck.

Outside Hands (Outside Line Path)

Slip and pivot -- off opponent's attack, slip to outside and the half turn so that your centerline is to their hip.

Over Hands

Double Pat -- off your strikes (e.g. jab-cross) tap/trap hands and insert under hooks

Under Hands

High shot -- off either offense or defense, lower level avoiding hands and clinch.
