A lot of times when fighters are clinched against the fence, when there’s nothing much to work with, why aren’t foot stomps more common?

When times right, they’re absolutely horrible. I remember mcgregor foot stomping poirers foot and Poirers reaction was as if a lightning bolt went through him.

Mendes utilised them a little against Aldo and they look so painful.

Surely it keeps the ref off your back for inactivity, and because they don’t seem to happen so much, fighters don’t really prepare for it.
