Chael Sonnen concepts in Colby Covington as a tuf -coach
Prior to his third time as a coach on TUF, Sonnen has drawn up the help of former UFC -Interim champion, Colby Covington.
'Chaos' Covington is one of the most controversial figures in sport and after his last fight and loss against Joaquin Buckley he decided to take on a new challenge.
“The head coach will hire Clayton. Clayton Hires is my coach, “Sonen began to reveal his coaching staff in an interview with Mmajunkie.
“He is my mentor. He is never my assistant. He will be the boss. I will have on the sweater: “Clayton's team.” It will consist of me, it will consist of 'Cowboy' Steve. He is going to do what Mike Dolce in general would do to help these guys with their weight, their diet, their strength and conditioning.
“I would never do an 'ultimate hunter' without the biggest grappler, Vinny Magalhaes – the last man who beat Gordon Ryan, would take that I could add, and he easily beat Gordon.
“And Colby Covington – Colby enters,” he continued.
Sonnen Covington in the corner for his last fight against Buckley and moments before the doctor stopped the fight, Sonen claimed that he was getting ready to throw in the towel.
Sonnen talks about the impact of Covington as a coach
Although Covington does not have a full -time coach, Sonnen believes that he will add much needed experience to the group he has put together.
“Colby is such a great mentor for people. This is what people don't know about him. He does all this on the side. He gives back, he goes to Kampen, he goes to the wrestling rooms of the university, he goes to the training sessions, whatever it is.
“He has guided and coached many people. But Colby does not want people to know that he is a nice guy, so I'm not going to ruin his gimmick. But he is going to do fantastic work, “Sonnen went on.
Covington continues to split the UFC fan base with its controversial personality and it is unclear from this moment when his career in the cage will bring him afterwards.
