@@scottmalcolm Hey know it all - why did everyone refer to Clark as a middleweight when he fought? LOL Back in the day, by NHL standards, he was a middleweight. 154 pounder in the NHL would have been lightweight, not middleweight lol.... if there ever was a 154lb player lol. Youre an amateur.
The problem with the leafs of today is they are passionate about their bank accounts and not about playing good defensive hockey and standing up for their teammates.
My two Favorite hockey players of all time, I grew up In Windsor, Bob's home town but I was a Leaf fan. I remember every one of these bouts . 2 of the greatest guys in sports...period!! I use to work at Schwab's Deli were his mom shopped and I'd run into Bob at the Baby house back in the day. Nicest guy you would ever meet and would talk to you like you were just one of the guys. RIP Bobby you are missed.
When the Capt. was the toughest guy on the team, had the best wrist shot in the league, was a goddam playoff hero, could cripple you with a check, and a first overall pick...THOSE WERE THE DAYS
Clark's hitting actually frightened the opponents more than the scrapping. His presence threw them off their game, knowing that he would lay them out if heads weren't on a swivel.
that is true -remember he was drafted as a defenseman but your right he threw some vicious body checks - very tough guy - the story of him beating up on Probert is ridiculous but doesn't discount the fact that he took on many much bigger men many nights and never backed down, Wendel was a hockey player first and foremost - he got ruined by bad management and coaching - think about it - he is the # 1 overall pick in the draft and you use up that skill on fighting guys much bigger night after night - i think we are the same age i think he was drafted in 84 or 85 - and he was a shell of himself by 1990 - isn't that when he got traded for Sundin ? What idiotic management Ballard had
@@pjpredhomme7699 way off lol he was traded in 94 his best goal scoring year was 93/94 with 46 goals in less than 82 games far from being a shell of his former self
@@pjpredhomme7699 he got traded prior to the 95 lockout season. In 92-93 he scored his career best 46 goals in 64 games. Even in has last full season with toronto he he scored 30 goals. Not really a shell of himself
Clark is my favourite leaf of all time and probert is my favourite player of all time. I loved watching these as a kid. Clark had the hardest snap shot in the nhl at one time.
I don’t care what anyone says anymore about fighting in hockey, this was exciting and I love the rivalry and the passion of the players. Today Hockey/ is fast no doubt but where is the passion when players tap each other on the butt after a big hit? They only do that because next year they’re playing golf together in a fundraiser. Some of the players feuds have gone on for years but that’s the passion I like in hockey. 🇨🇦
Clark probably the best Leaf ever and Probert the best fighter ever and he could score as well!!!! Could you imagine if either one of these guys were still playing?!
@@jacknone1564 Clark was under 6 feet tall. Bob Probert is the undisputed best fighter in the history of hockey. They fought four times in a single night. Those are three objective facts.
Real tough guys, you didn’t see a lot of cheap shots on star players back then, the game policed itself for the most part. New nhl is not as exciting as it was back in the day. Fights bring whole crowds to their feet and often changes game momentum.
Clark one of the best all around players.. all Heart, and strongest middle weight ever, and did more than. Hold his own against the bigger Probert and McSorley.
Fought Mcsorley 4 times as well. That's 8 fights against Probert and Mcsorley. He only lost one. That was against Probert and Clark needed a trainer to tie up his skates before the game(that's according to Don Cherry in a Coaches Corner segment-and Cherry loved Probert). Clark was definitely one of a kind.
Keeeeepripes, my 2 favorites going at it.............just finished reading Probie's book. Leaf's fan here all the way, but Detroit was always my 2nd. Although different in stature, two absolute MONSTERS when it came to fist-a-cuffs!!
Amazing! Clark with grit AND playing ability. Probert too. The later goons though huge couldn't play. These old school dogs belonged on the ice for more than 2 min a game.
If you had to rate the 3 best middleweight fighters, pound for pound in the history of the NHL, I'd go with Stan Jonathon, Wendel Clarke, and Darren Langdon. All gave up a size, weight and reach advantage to the toughest heavyweights, and they all held their own very well, and won a lot of these fights. Honourable mention to Tye Domi, although he lost way more fights than these 3 guys, but was tough.
Wendel won most of his fights by starting quickly and throwing bombs. Probert had great endurance and may have been, pound for pound the best ever. Toronto could sure use a guy like Clark now.
Clark did incredibly well against some of the toughest the ice has ever seen. He may have been the best all round player of the bunch as well. A true Canadian hockey player of the era.
Wendel the best! Not scared of anyone. That is the type of player that the current Leafs need. A complete player that could do it all, SCORE, HIT and FIGHT. A REAL hockey player! GO LEAFS GO!!!!
ROUND 1: clear win for Probert. ROUND 2: narrow win for Clark. ROUND 3: at first glance, looks like a win for Clark. However, Clark didn't land too many and that last right from Probert dropped Clark, so a TKO win for Probert. ROUND 4: an uneventful draw.
From what I could tell from this video, Probert clearly won the first fight but Clark could have arguably got a decision on the other 3.. regardless a true warrior
A Leaffan, I used to watch them religiously back then. Now I don’t even watch hockey, too many teams and diluted. I miss the dynasties Oilers Wings Islanders Penguins. Can’t built those type of team’s anymore. ❤️Probie, he had Kocur. Wendel was an island most of time. Be ready,Wendel didn’t wait.
Spell his name correctly - its Wendel Clark always put the Toronto Maple Leafs first. He was there for every team mate when needed and it took a toll on his body. All the big hits, all the fights.... he did it all for the team. What a great team mate, player and Captain. He could have quit the fighting, less body checks, stayed healthier, played more games and scored more points but no.... he did what he had to do for the team, thats how he played the game.
Where were 3 wendel won I saw one and he had his gloves dropped and was throwing before Probert took his off plus if you look his short arms were hitting mostly shoulder pads. And none where like the one where he got pounded into the ice like that 1st one.
@@83reggieT No excuses. Bob Probert was the worst gimmick fighter with his vanishing jersey. He was such an amazing fighter but loses multiple cred points for fighting with that gimmick. Of these fights, Probert won one clean, I'd say Clark won two and a draw in the fourth. Either way, Clark won the series IMO.
The only one that you could say Clark won was the first fight from 1992, and I’m not so sure he won that one. Probert nailed him good near the end. You really see that on other videos of the fight. Clark gets credit for taking him on but that’s about it
Probert, often picked up as a fight would wear on. Clark, was most dangerous early, then would tire fast. Sometimes these fight highlights don't give the proper context. Injuries on a given night, late in the shift etc.
@@nthdegree1269 the truth is he was a pretty easy going guy most of the time it took him a little bit to get into the mood usually and once the other guy had taken a few shots he would be ready to fire - he was a tough enough kid that he could do that - Ive heard russ courtnall say how wendel kicked the shit out of probert over the past couple of years - and i have been thinking -really I'm the same age and i watched most of those games - i don't remember that at all but Courtnall would have been on the ice - so who was i to say - now i see what they are talking about - the way its described by leaf fans is completely detached from reality . I give plenty of props to Wendel - he was giving away at least five inches and probably 30 lbs or more - he was an awfully tough guy no question about that and that wrist shot was world class. Glad i got to see these - the way "Wendel could kick the shit out of Probert" is what i have heard - and its laughable to call it that way - in the one fight he jumped on him early kept his head down and hit him with some punches that is about there was too it - it is not like it even winded him - with the types of teams they have had since 67 - i guess you have to make the most out of the things you have to feel good for
Not a Leaf fan, but Clark was amazing. In today’s market he could easily get 15m/year. Imagine the direction and leadership he would give to the Leafs,…or any other team?
I'm a DRW fan, but Wendel Clark was a Real Dude. He was not in Probert's class as a fighter but he was in Heart. He played for shitty Harold Ballard TML but still showed up, and he did not have much around him too step up after he did his fight. Clark did not have Joey Kocur and then Gerard Gallant to step in behind him.
First of all, I was/am a huge Clark fan and grew up watching the Leafs. I was/am also a big Probert (RIP) fan and just watched his documentary; "Bob Probert. Storey of a Tough Guy, which was awesome and I highly recommend if you have not seen it. You can find it for free here on RUclips . But I cannot help to notice that all of these fights occurred in MLG....you know what they used to say? Wendel at home, Wendy on the road...
I don't think that's fair. He fought John Kordic, Jeff Chycrun, Allan May, Cam Neeley, Shane Churla, Craig Berube and others on the road. Wendel was often injured and would be out for long stretches . His fight card would have been double if he'd stayed healthy.
@@nthdegree1269 yeah and good chance he got it fighting guys much much bigger than him - and don't forget it was not like he had anyone else who had his back - that matters too - he was taking on the toughest players the other team had the leafs didnt have many other guys who could battle for him on nights when his hands were banged up - or he is nicked up - that makes a big difference - Probert had Kocur at the ready most nights -ao he didnt have to taken on everyone , every night-- Probert was a hockey player- he liked to play the game too - of course so did Wendel - but should have never been counted on to fight like he did - i remember they had Brad Smith for a while - Bob Mcgill - but Probert speed bagged him a couple times no one else in that class
Wendel would be on my starting line man Probert being a fighter killed him as well when playing for the blackhawks as a older man having to fight all the young new comers poor guy much respect to Bob Probert RIP.
My calls it's out of order, the 2nd fight on here was their 1st career scrap, so RD 1 edge Clark, Probert may have been a Rookie, RD 2 87-88 year Probert destroys Clard, RD 3 is the toughest to critique. Clark appears to instigate, and lands many and undresses Probie, Probert gets a Couple in, at the end there's a different camera angle that shows Probert hit him in the chin and knocked him down, I have to give it to Probert TKO, RD 4 2nd in the game, a late upper cut a split second before the linesman come in stunned Clark, my card Probert 3 Clark 1, but RD 3 is hard to call, if you look at this angle I would give Clark a win, but there is that other video that was available on Drop Your Gloves. which I don't see online anymore..
These fights are not in order as they occurred. In the order as they occurred, 1st one a draw, 2nd one Probert beat and hurt Clark, 3rd one a draw, 4th one not much but slight edge to Probert, uppercut at the end. Clark was just an average fighter when he didn’t get the jump on a guy.
Probert was scary good. Clark had serious balls to take him on. He had to get inside and/or tie him up to have any success cause of the reach disadvantage.
Clark was a middleweight's size, at best, but took on everyone. Legend.
No he was a crusierweight size 190 Probert 230 middleweight would be 154 JR Mw -168 super Mw LOL
There is probably not ONE guy in the NHL that is a Middleweight 😂
@@scottmalcolm Hey know it all - why did everyone refer to Clark as a middleweight when he fought? LOL
Back in the day, by NHL standards, he was a middleweight. 154 pounder in the NHL would have been lightweight, not middleweight lol.... if there ever was a 154lb player lol. Youre an amateur.
I would take Wendel Clark over Mathews or marner any day of the week!
And BP would still mess you up..
That would be stupid
Talent and kick ass yes totally, today's hockey is soft
The problem with the leafs of today is they are passionate about their bank accounts and not about playing good defensive hockey and standing up for their teammates.
Clark was a p---y
My favorite leaf ever Wendell Clark. He had the heart of a lion. 💪
Fav Leaf ever and cant spell his name..... nice one.
Wendel

Well said
Probert was the GOAT. Best fighter ever.
@@williamrosskopf8657 he had trouble with middleweights
Most likely? lol
Man, the NHL used to really be something…

Yup, winning was more important than hairdos.

They think it’s a wrist shot

Yeah. They would be the first and only two hockey players to be pushing 60 years old
Hate the leafs with a passion but I always had respect for Clark
Felt sorry that he played for that team
He had heart and guts
GREAT WARRIORS! TWO OF THE TOUGHEST GUYS EVER!🏒👊🏒

Jolly P ....he would of, eh?
rongermanjr yea he would of. Eh eh hurray. Lol
Better to burn out than to fade away
Clark had a lot of back problems. He actually was quite a skilled player and he had an awesome wrist shot.
@@nthdegree1269 I remember him sniping a wrister past my guy Mike Richter one night and my jaw dropped. He was an awesome player, for sure.
You know these two respected each other a lot. I know I sure did.
Wendel was incredible. He was alot smaller then the legendary Probert.
Wendel was a bum.
@@Promoney22 haha, yeah right
Clarke was strong and quick...a great Hockey player. Probert was a good Hockey player...a beast with his fists. Both had Lion hearts. RIP Bob
Bobby used Wendel to dust the rink
Martin Arnold hmmm, I completely missed that!
Probert’s my man, no question. But Clark got the better end of this series.
Thanks for posting
You must be blind. Probey took 3 out of 4
Wendle Clark now owns a restaurant here in Saskatoon
They could land them and eat those punches too. Two of the greatest.

Holy shit to remember that fight when I was 8 years old and now I am 40
Clark one of the best all around players.. all Heart, and strongest middle weight ever, and did more than. Hold his own against the bigger Probert and McSorley.
four fights. But between a heavyweight and a middleweight. Which made Clark's on-ice belligerence against Probert even more remarkable.
Looks like Clark beat him a few times he was a warrior
Fought Mcsorley 4 times as well. That's 8 fights against Probert and Mcsorley. He only lost one.

Soft hands and a natural goal scorer
It's tragic that the press focussed on his fighting.@@terryduffield5860
Respect for Wendy, he never backed down.
Clark was a badass.
I love hearing Mickey Redmond.
1. Probert. 2. Slightly to Clark. 3. Draw. Advantage Clark. 4. Draw. Slightly to Probert.
Props for Clark holding his own except the first fight where probert was clearly the winner.
Wendel Clark was one of my all time favorites. A pitbull.
Both men legendary fighters, any team would love to have.
This is how you become hockey 🏒 legends 👏
I miss the gardens.

Leaf's started the season 10-0 and the Jays won the WS. Good time to be a Toronto sports fan.

He may have been the best all round player of the bunch as well. A true Canadian hockey player of the era.
This Wendell kid has some guts.
❤them, Leaf. RIP Bob. Wendel didn’t just there long. You had better be ready!
Probert was all over Clark in the first fight, Wendel (that's how you spell his name) was ready for the ones to follow.

Those were great days
I was in a shelter with window clerks adopted nephew very strange character but honest
Probie the GOAT of crushing face.

Guys like Clark and Rick tocchet were Fearless
Best captain the leafs ever had.
Round 1-Probes, Round 2- Clark, Round 3- Slight edge to Clark and Round 4- draw
Bullshit, Probie won every fight against wendy.
We can all thank Probert for jersey ‘tie downs’, lol
Wendel would be on my starting line man Probert being a fighter killed him as well when playing for the blackhawks as a older man having to fight all the young new comers poor guy much respect to Bob Probert RIP.
I'd say 3 draws and 1 win for probert
Its not the number of fights you win.
Its the number of fights you show up for.
Crazy you could do that against the best player on the team back then
Two warriors...
Wendel is pretty brave to take on Probert!...a bit small take on Probert.
6ft.4 vs. about 5.10 220 to 200 Mr. Clark tough as nails
These two loved 😍 eachother, can't you tell? 😅
Wendle Clark was a monster.
My calls
it's out of order, the 2nd fight on here was their 1st career scrap, so RD 1 edge Clark, Probert may have been a Rookie, RD 2 87-88 year Probert destroys Clard, RD 3 is the toughest to critique. Clark appears to instigate, and lands many and undresses Probie, Probert gets a Couple in, at the end there's a different camera angle that shows Probert hit him in the chin and knocked him down, I have to give it to Probert TKO, RD 4 2nd in the game, a late upper cut a split second before the linesman come in stunned Clark, my card Probert 3 Clark 1, but RD 3 is hard to call, if you look at this angle I would give Clark a win, but there is that other video that was available on Drop Your Gloves. which I don't see online anymore..
A couple of tough hombres
These fights are not in order as they occurred. In the order as they occurred, 1st one a draw, 2nd one Probert beat and hurt Clark, 3rd one a draw, 4th one not much but slight edge to Probert, uppercut at the end. Clark was just an average fighter when he didn’t get the jump on a guy.
No leaf More deserving of the C. That man could score hit fight check I met him at Vadolder's Nice Man!
Probert was scary good. Clark had serious balls to take him on. He had to get inside and/or tie him up to have any success cause of the reach disadvantage.
Clark was a stud. What was he, twenty in that first tilt?
The greatest Leaf of all was number 23. Fast Eddie Shack.
