Who the hell voted a winner in this one. This is the definition of a draw

Posted by Remyy on Dec 18, 2007 at 5:23 PM agree

Neither fighter did anything to win the fight. Smith defended well and Clarkson just spun around as if on Saturday night fever.
I think a wet paper bag would have held up against either side.

Looked like most of Clarkson's bombs landed on Smiths shoulder or armpit. Yawner. I wouldn't give this to either guy. Clarkson may have landed a shot or 2, but Smith controlled the situation.

I cannot figure out what smith was doing at the end of the fight? Trying to grab the back of his jersey? Draw.

Edge Clarkson. For the last shot. Hard to tell by the angle if it landed but I will give him the benifit of the doubt. NICE TILT!!!!

Any Philly as whuppin is a great fight, I wonder when the last Flyer dropped the gloves for a true hockey purpose... Broad Street Morons

No real punches connected from both players, but the take down goes to Clarkson, so i guess he gets the edge.

Posted by teabagger on Dec 17, 2007 at 11:13 AM agree

The fight was a draw, but Clarkson's last punch show's he's a no-ball loser.

A BIT OF A CHEAP SHOT BY CLARKSON AT THE END - BUT IN A FIGHT I GUESS THERE REALLY ISN'T ANY 'CHEAP SHOTS'

Win clarkson!

Posted by tim13 on Dec 17, 2007 at 1:27 AM agree

Smith lands a big right early before the two grapple and exchange a few punches that all appear to miss. Smith seems to be in control of the wrestling, despite allowing Clarkson to throw a haymaker uppercut which almost connects. The fight ends with a nifty Clarkson takedown when he realizes Smith was about to try to take him down. Clarkson throws a borderline cheap**** as they hit the ice. No winner here in an okay bout which never really got going.

pretty close bout, not much happening. Clarkson employing that boring style of the "extended arm hold away and swinging once every ten seconds". Cheap shot at the end by Clarkson when Smith was down on the ice.

its seems like clarkson got votes for not being flyer.it was weak fight with no winner and for sure its not clarkson usin peters-style in this one and throwin almost nothin.
