True. Perhaps he can use a BJJ double leg instead? The Baiana, I believe it's called. If I have to do a double leg, the Baiana is what I'd go for as shooting explosively into the pavement with the knees is detrimental to one's health.

I can see where you're coming from. Maybe it's just my own weird personal style or something, but I actually trust my clinch fighting than my stand up. But then again, fighting in the clinch is something I've worked on A LOT in my martial arts experience. Whether I'm rolling in BJJ or sparring in kick boxing, I've always had a better chance going to the clinch with my partners.

But like I said, going to the clinch is something you can work on. Look at Judokas and traditional Thai boxers alike. Clinch freaks.
