I think that would work. I would also work boxing with someone traditional like Lennox if I could.

I only used the TUF as an example so everyone had something to relate it to, What i really mean is if you would start your own team, what coaches you wold have.

Wrestling- Koscheck, he comes off as a dickhead but I know that he was an excellent coach up here at UB.

JJ- I'd like to have Big Nog but I feel like the language barrier could hurt some fighters. I know that he speaks a little english but some people just don't have that kind of attention span. So, I would also consider Serra strongly. He may not be the best practicioner but he strikes me as some1 with good teaching ability.

Striking- I would love to have Freddie Roach train me in boxing. He strikes me as a great teacher, someone who pushes you by demanding your respect but at the same time forming his training around your strengths and weaknesses.


I feel like not everyone that is a great practicioner (sp?) is a good teacher. Many people who are great athletes do not make great coaches because they do not know how to relate to someone who is finding particular skills difficult because they never had to struggle through the learning process. Being great at a skill does not necessarily mean that you can convey your ideas the same way a great teacher or coach can.

That's my same perspective (get your own LOL). The best coaches are going to be the guys who are good but have less "natural ability" because they had to work harder for their skills and have a better understanding of what someone should do to improve a skill.

Striking-Anderson Silva-devastating Muay Thai
Wrestling Lindland-I hate him, but won an olymic silver medal in Greco-Roman wrestling
BJJ-Jeremy Horn-He isn't the best at BJJ, but a great teacher who could demonstrate all the techniques



Sundance- what do you mean Gabe as a punching bag? Gabrial Ginzaga or Gabe Rudiger?
