The issue is many grapplers don't train striking. It's not that easy to obtain a clinch in a fists flying situation.I used an old traditional technique used for striking and applied it for grappling.
You can train wrestling all your life, you still won't have enough experience to deal with a head punch. If you can knock your opponent out before he can take you down, you don't have to worry about his takedown skill.
Here is an example that my long fist teacher explained a move used in a striking art form that can be applied in anti-grappling.
