Media Topuria's ditched coach Jorge Climent talk about the split

[Unheralded Truth]

Yes, it's real. He's gonna live in Madrid and I have my own project here with my brother. We have our family, our
club. We have a lot of fighters and our promotion. Ilia goes to Madrid and will have his own gym in his house,
and he wants all the energy on just him from those around. So we decided as gentlemen, you know, to have our
own ways.

Are you still helping him a little, like if he comes by from time to time? Or is it no more?

No, no. We're not working anymore together. He goes on his own and we with our ways.

But this is big news. How do you feel about all this?

I feel, you know, this is not good for the sentimental thing. But it's the life. We go with him for this whole journey, and
now he feels grown and wants to fly away, you know? We are very proud to come all this way with him. Still proud
of everything he will do. I want all the good for him and his brother, and I would like to think they want that for us.

Has this been long coming or a recent thing, when was it all decided?

No, no. We decided like last week, we were all together and talked about it. We did it friendly and like gentlemen, you know.

lol @ Topuria training by himself at his house.

 

[PrideNverDies]

Very very stupid decision. Topuria's downfall will be epic and deserved.

as long as he surrounds himself with yes men this can be great for him

Since Topuria is a Conor wannabe, he should see if Ido Portal is available and have him coach how to play touch butt

 

[Hymen Crusher]

Lesnar style

Since Topuria is a Conor wannabe, he should see if Ido Portal is available and have him coach how to play touch butt

The crazy part is that Conor started losing after he split with Ido

 

[Legendary]

Well this doesn't bring confidence. Kinda sounds like his Ego is getting the best of him. He believes his own bullshit, and that works until you get in there with someone who doesn't give a fuck about your ego and beats the fuck out of you.

 

[Dorkman]

Touch butt in the park bless

 

[Jackonfire]

The crazy part is that Conor started losing after he split with Ido

After? You sure about that?

 

[theTKDguy]

Doenst sound good to me. Weird timing. if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. Charles is a tough matchup too. We’ll see.

 

[chinarice]

So Ilia was a snake in the grass all along?

i don't get why you'd make such a drastic change before the biggest fight of your career vs the most dangerous fighter you've ever fought?

Is it really that drastic, though?

He has probably already put in a lot of work with his brother and the other coaching staff that are still with him.

i guess we'll see when they fight

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Seems quite strange to me to only train in his home, could be risky, a lot depends on what training partners he has in his house, if they are guys with a lot of experience that will fight back then it might not be a big problem, but if its just punching bags who only block and don't fight back and are scared to death to do anything wrong like Conors training partners then I suspect he will wilt and fall apart quite quickly if the fight starts not going his way

Ironically touch butt Conor had fantastic movement and footwork. Once he lost this, he fell apart.

 

[Mongoosemk12]

These guys who don't realize their team is what got them to the dance are fucking delusional. It's hard to be great when you don't have sparring partners who are emulating your opponents and helping you get better. It's hard to be great when you don't have your coaches pushing you to your limit every day. If he was just headed to another gym for a change of pace or style, I could understand that. Training at home with coaches who only see potential dollar signs is a train-wreck situation. Ego is gonna get this guy, and deservedly so.

 

[Orochimaru 大蛇丸]

A great fighter is gonna be great regardless of any coach
