TORONTO – Duane Ludwig has long since moved on from his days coaching at Team Alpha Male, but he and the gym still share biographical space. And now that TAM’s founder Urijah Faber is retiring after his fight with Brad Pickett on Dec. 17 in his hometown of Sacramento, the old coach thinks "The California Kid" is making the wise decision to hang up the gloves.
Though they’ve been somewhat contentious in the aftermath of the break-up, Ludwig remains complimentary of Faber’s business savvy, but he thinks the writing has been on the wall for Faber to walk away from competition.
