Weight cutting isn’t the only danger present during UFC fight weeks. Sometimes even coaches and cornermen find themselves in harm’s way. As did Team Alpha Male (TAM) owner and former multiple-time UFC title challenger Urijah Faber.
Faber is in Singapore this week to corner TAM talent Teruto Ishihara. Ishihara is set to take on debuting top prospect Petr Yan in the featured prelim of UFC Fight Night: Cerrone vs. Edwards, on June 23rd at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. And while Ishihara is the one who will find himself in harm’s way come Saturday, Faber has already picked up an early injury, courtesy of a car running over his foot.
