how to stop opponent from clinching

[flamangatang2k5]

Hey guys,

I've been playing FN series since the begining and I had FN3 a few years ago. I remember being able to stop someone from clinching with you by blocking or something like that. My problem in FN4 is that I've been on the brink of knocking the CPU out several times in my legacy mode, yet everytime i daze them, they managed to clinch me through my punching. I know there has to be a way to stop this crap from happening. Anyone know?

Push them away before they do it and hit them with a hook.

Try pushing them away?

Yeah I'll try it again. I was pushing with the "square" button on my PS3 and the guy just kept grabbing me. He even put me in a headlocke one time. I was hoping my guy would give his a$$ the Miguel Cotto treatment and slam him.

Is there a way to punch out of the clinch?

Dunno, I just push them off of me.
