Most successful camps of all time

[BowserJr]

ATT is one of the first that popped into my head. they have a long list of great fighters who trained there. First champ out of their camp was Robbie Lawler.

I remembered that one later

They had Joanna, Woodley, Big Foot, Yoel, King Mo

 

[BowserJr]

Including Khabib and Islam in AKA is a little disengenous.

They are from the school of Abdulmanap. Abdulmanap produced two consecutive P4P #1 fighters in the UFC, and also Usman Nurmagomedov who has the most title defences in Bellator history.

Javier Mendez himself doesn't take even credit for them.

The best Team in MMA history is Team Khabib.

They only have 3 champs so far. They could be but there are many teams that have had many more champs

Serra-Longo Fight Team

Matt Serra
Merab Dvalishvili
Aljamain Sterling
Chris Weidman

A few other fighters that had decent UFC careers.

Ooohh that's a great one!

 

[Typrune Goatley]

see, to me this is why this is kind of difficult because of so many guys switching camps. so do you count Dillashaw for Team AlphaMidget or do you count him towards Bang MMA? or both?

I would say both because TJ started with TAM and won the belt with them, but then switched camps while champion and was defending his belt while with Bang.

As for guys like Nog, he won the PRIDE title with BTT but by the time he came to the UFC several years later and won the UFC belt, I believe he was training with Blackhouse by this time, so Nog should count towards both teams.

 

[BowserJr]

The list from TS dont make any sense. Alot of the names listed, never had the camp as their main training place.

If someone visit a gym for a short time, dont mean that they was trained and made in that gym.

I guess robert whittaker is a city kickboxing fighter now..

Maybe read the whole OP. I said camps that had champs etc fighting out of those camps.

IE. Silva was Cage Rage and Shooto champ as a Chute boxe fighter and fought out of Blackhouse when he became UFC champ.

Robbie Lawler also was an MGS fighter but became champ as ATT fighter so that would count Robbie as an ATT fighter when he was champ

Yes, exactly. It's not that hard lol

Was surprised not to see them in the list considering 1/2 are recent champions.


Also, no American Top Team?

They had
Joanna Champion,
Amanda Nunes
Tyron Woodley
Mike Thomas Brown (WEC 145 counts IMO.)

All defended their titles successfully

Am I missing anyone else?

WEC counts for sure!

Robbie Lawler was fighting out of ATT when he won the belt and defended

I didn't realize Nunes was there too

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

I didn't know Torres trained at Tristar

he didn't when he was in WEC, he trained with them when he came to UFC. so maybe don't count him for Tristar since he won his WEC belt before he went there. the only reason i remember is because they mentioned it and i thought "damn his jab is going to be crazy" because he already had a good jab and Tristar basically produces jabbers lol

 

[MarioLemieux]

Javier Mendez def helped their striking alot, and they def benefited from training wrestling with DC. They aint goin there cos they like the sun.

Usman, Umar and Islam all had different primary striking coaches. Khabib is the only one who stuck it out loyal to Javier and he is considered the worst striker out of all of them.

It doesnt matter how good a striker he is, he IMPROVED his striking to do what he needed it to do. Once he returned from his injuries, every fight he got better and better.

When he fought MJ he had no answer for Mj's jab.

Against Barboza, he was able to jab his way in, thus not having to just come straight in and eat the jab

We saw him bait Conor's left and we saw him drop Conor.

All that shit was stuff he got from AKA.

Mike Brown is a great shout out.

I think it's very hard to say but my favourite has to be Longo. If you count Serra WW win, then they have

MW
WW
BW x 2

And they are home grown. I think you can count Merab as home grown too. And it's not like Sterling or Merab were super prospects either like Cormier.

Yeah, Merab wasn't a well accomplished martial artist at all when he joined them. He was basically training at some jabroni gym and was not a prospect in the slightest. Lost his first fight and third fight lol.
