Since its sale to WME-IMG last year, the UFC‘s financial moves have been subject to more coverage than ever. Dozens of front office staff were the first to go, including retired fighters and honorary executives Chuck Liddell and Matt Hughes. Next, walkout music licenses were targeted, with Carla Esparza being the first to speak out after being denied use of her signature entrance song. Now, coaches are feeling the effects of the promotion’s belt-tightening.
Team Jackson-Winklejohn striking coach Brandon “Six Gun” Gibson revealed today, via Twitter, that the UFC is no longer providing complimentary video footage to coaches and fighters for study and preparation.
