awesome

gratton came in with his facemask on it went with the first right and down gratton went with the 2nd

credit to gratton for protecting his goalie though, that's the way the game should be played

Clarkson drops Gratton with two big shots.

this was a non fight. it didn't look like gratton wanted to go, but he stepped up for his team, which is respectable. when the refs didn't step in, gratton landed a good solid hook, but it did no real damage. gratton got hit, but clearly lost his balance and went down. there wan't enought action to call it anything but a draw. gratton should have won, but due to the fall, he clearly looked like the loser. i'd like to see a rematch for all you gratton haters.

Good win for Clarkson. Gratton did what he had to do even with the eye injury.
Posted by Cendro on Nov 02, 2007 at 12:06 PM agree disagree
They each got a couple licks in until Gratton lost his balance.

Gratton drops the mitts foolishly...I say that because of the eye injury. Once the mitts drop, he grabs on as if he wants the linesmen to get in quickly because of his eye. Instead, he pulls back and starts throwing 'em. Gratts gets in a few on Clarkson and then Clarkson gets a few in. Gratton goes down but not because of punches. It looks like he leans back to protect the eye and they both go down. Draw.

Gratton got dropped by a smaller player. NO reason for anybody to call this a draw or even vote for Gratton since he landed 0 punches.

Great right hand by Clarkson. He made Gratton look stupid as hell like a Rock 'em-Sock 'em Robot wit his helmet landing in the parking lot! In fact he made Gratton AND Kuba look like some amateurs, nice..

Helluva shot at the end. Decision Clarkson and for the record, color man is a frickin moron. I guess I guy who career has comprised of that very situation doesn't know what hes getting into. As far as Kuba being a wet towel, they're right, but thats not his game either. He shied away from every hit he was supposed to make when with the Wild.

Easy win for Clarkson. He covered in Gratton with 2 or 3 rights.
Posted by SirYohans on Jan 25, 2008 at 1:16 AM agree disagree
Clarkson just unloaded on his sorry asss. That punch got Gratton dropped.
