UFC friends turned into enemies

[AldoStillGoat]

Given the recent Volkov and Pavlovich friends turned to enemies beef…. What are some notable examples of UFC fighters who were friends that became enemies?

Perhaps the most famous one:

 

[Jawth]

Chuck and Tito is the most famous one.

Another big one was Jones and Evans.

 

[PhilMcCavity]

Nick ring

Rashad Evans and Jon Jones. They were close. And Rashad's whole gym basically stabbed him in the back. To be fair, they obviously saw that Jon Jones had more potential than Rashad, so it's tough to argue they made the wrong choice.

 

[Neck&Neck]

Conor and Lord Artem

 

[HHJ]

Rashad Evans and Jon Jones. They were close. And Rashad's whole gym basically stabbed him in the back. To be fair, they obviously saw that Jon Jones had more potential than Rashad, so it's tough to argue they made the wrong choice.

Rashad actually said then after Jones became champ, they ran into each other and when no one was around Jones was a complete asshole to him.

Thats when he said the dude's public persona was totally fake.

TAM vs killashaw

Chuck and Tito is the most famous one.

Another big one was Jones and Evans.

I dont think Chuck and Tito were all that close though.

 

[anachronist]

I dont think Chuck and Tito were all that close though.

I don think anyone can be close to Tito

 

[AfroBanana]

I dont think Chuck and Tito were all that close though.

Yea was more Tito using the “we train together” excuse.

Oh ya didn’t Jon Jones and Colby used to be roommates but now they hate each other?

 

[BabyBlue_Bomber]

It is quite an interesting storyline that creative is writing here with Pavlovich and Volkov…

Reminiscent of Macho Man turning on Hogan, Sting joining NWO Red, Michaels super-kicking Jannety, Rollins breaking up The Shield, etc….

I’m seeing the UFC give a huge push to Pavlovich in the future. That’s usually what happens when they decide to turn a babyface into a heel…

I wanna hate on Colby for that but then I see what Jorge's become and I just feel bad for them both.

 

[Hdfi]

Colby and:
Masvidal
Polyana
Jones

 

[Koala]

 

[Mammothman]

Tito and Dana

@StonedLemur sweetie buns… got any input here?

How about Sakuraba and what's his face the pro wrestler who "subbed" Coleman? Takada? I think it had to do with money.
