Johny Hendricks parts way with Team TakeDown, still wants Tyron Woodley UFC fight

When one door closes ...

Taking deer meat out of his diet isn't the only thing Johny Hendricks is changing moving forward.

The former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Welterweight champion has announced that he is parting ways with his long-time management team, Team TakeDown.

"(Team TakeDown) has done a great job with me for the last eight years," Hendricks today told MMA Junkie Radio. "We just couldn't come to an agreement on certain things, and it was time for me to pull away."

And while changing management teams usually isn't a big deal, in the case of "Bigg Rigg," it's a pretty big one.
