clinch in a streetfight

[Nemesis]

One question: How long can you maintain a clinch in a streetfight? Won't any of the fighters loose their balance and make them both fall down?
We are not talking about a stand up ring fight, we are talking about a mean and dirty streetfight.

IMO, from the clinch, you need to keep working. Balance can be lost not being in the clinch. Again, its a tool, just like everything else. Nobody says that we have to maintain that position for an extended period of time. Clinch, work your in-fighting and get back out, if need be.
