We on Sherdog seem to be very observant o f ridiculously poor coaching.
We've had some gems over the years:
- Edmond Tarverdyan coaching Ronda Rousey and Travis Browne (head moooment!!!)
- Owen Roddy and John Kavanagh (coaching Conor against Floyd lol, no actual boxing coach, wow.)
- Uriah Faber coaching anyone (yeah, you're doing good, throw that knee kick, yeah, more.)
- Ido Portal (movement coaching is important, freedom of the body blah, blah, blah)
- Chris Weidman's dad (he's still my boyyy!)
- Chris Eubank Jr. (no coaches, just his dad staring at him intently in the corner)
Like seriously let this sink in... Mike Perry is coached and cornered by his girlfriend, his fucking girlfriend. Excuse my ignorance if she is some superstar kickboxer that I've completely overlooked, but I'm pretty damn sure that she isn't. A few yoga classes and she's shouting out instructions for you in a fight, it's like she's his head coach, the other dude in the corner literally just whispers stuff in her ear for her to shout at Mike.
Mike deserves to be grilled non-stop for this pathetic shit, a girlfriend as your coach. Wow-wee!
