On Sunday afternoon, news broke that longtime MMA coach Robert Follis died over the weekend at the age of 48. It was shocking news, and as the MMA world has mourned his passing, some of his most notable students have spoken out in remembrance of the legendary coach.
Among them is perhaps Follis’ most successful protege, former UFC women’s bantamweight champion Miesha Tate, who spoke with The Luke Thomas Show on Monday, discussing what made Follis such a well-respected MMA coach.
“Robert wasn’t a good coach, he was a great coach,” explained Tate.
