Hendricks when he would no longer want to pay his camp 10-20%.
Thought he could train himself at home, while having a restaurant and 5 kids.
TBF Hendricks came up through Team Takedown. A team of investors set out to recruit high-level wreslters, and turn them into mma champions. They would provide a salary, housing, and gym in return to keep the money generated from fighting. Probably the first time a group of guys ponied up fighters training/living expenses, although at a high cost in the long-run. They recruited 5 members on the team and managed to take one of them to UFC gold in Hendricks.
He prob felt tired of paying for so long for his success and thought he could do it alone.
Fun fact: I fought one of Team Takedowns members in my pro debut. He made it to WEC and UFC.
