She's going to break up with him soon because he just left coach mode and went into bad husband mode.Seriously though, fuck Aspen Ladd’s coach. There is a difference between giving your fighter a wake up call and berating her. What a horrible motivator. She needed confidence and simple direction, not “what is the matter with you? Tell me what you are doing in there.”
Ladd looks 3 months pregnant.
Guy threw her under the bus for the cameras. He embarrassed her in order to save face. That was the worst coaching I’ve ever seen.Seriously though, fuck Aspen Ladd’s coach.

I think he’s going to take a lot of heat and criticism and he deserves it.Seriously though, fuck Aspen Ladd’s coach. There is a difference between giving your fighter a wake up call and berating her.

I have to think he knows her personality better than we do so it's hard for me to say he was wrong for saying it, but it's worth noting that we've seen that happen countless times with male fighters and no one has a problem with it. We certainly don't see other fighters tweeting that it's "Abuse".Seriously though, fuck Aspen Ladd’s coach. There is a difference between giving your fighter a wake up call and berating her.

Yeah, there's nothing at all different about a grown male coach yelling at his grown male student and a boyfriend verbally abusing his girlfriend in public.I have to think he knows her personality better than we do so it's hard for me to say he was wrong for saying it, but it's worth noting that we've seen that happen countless times with male fighters and no one has a problem with it.

I’m sure that will be the song their camp sings. Male or female, I’m just saying that “coaching” technique has a low rate of success and reeked of desperation not leadership.I have to think he knows her personality better than we do so it's hard for me to say he was wrong for saying it, but it's worth noting that we've seen that happen countless times with male fighters and no one has a problem with it.

Tate was in a relationship with one of her coaches, so she might see it through a different lens.I have to think he knows her personality better than we do so it's hard for me to say he was wrong for saying it, but it's worth noting that we've seen that happen countless times with male fighters and no one has a problem with it.

I believe he is also one of those coaches that starting coaching her when she has underage and transferred that to boyfriend the moment she turned 18.Yeah, there's nothing at all different about a grown male coach yelling at his grown male student and a boyfriend verbally abusing his girlfriend in public.
Not Ladd? Robbery: Fucking travesty even.
Tate also accused Ladd of cheating 2 weeks ago and her coach told Tate to fuck off. So Tate might not be the best measuring stick for Ladd and her coach.Tate was in a relationship with one of her coaches, so she might see it through a different lens.
I don't disagree it's a shit strategy, I said as much when he started doing it in the 3rd.I’m sure that will be the song their camp sings. Male or female, I’m just saying that “coaching” technique has a low rate of success and reeked of desperation not leadership.
Is there such thing as a WMMA fighter that isn't in a relationship with a coach, fellow fighter training partner or isn't coached by their dad?Tate was in a relationship with one of her coaches, so she might see it through a different lens.
So your hot take is that women don't have the ability to compartmentalize their lives? Lol, k.Yeah, there's nothing at all different about a grown male coach yelling at his grown male student and a boyfriend verbally abusing his girlfriend in public.
Yeah I know. Ladd was pretty respectful in her response but her coach went scorched earth. ESPN edited a lot of the corner work so I’m not entirely sure what he said. It has different optics when you look at it from a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship.Tate also accused Ladd of cheating 2 weeks ago and her coach told Tate to fuck off. So Tate might not be the best measuring stick for Ladd and her coach.
I don’t know. Tate and Caraway were together for a long time. I’m assuming Ladd and her coach might have something quite similar to that.Is there such thing as a WMMA fighter that isn't in a relationship with a coach, fellow fighter training partner or isn't coached by their dad?
To be clear, I don't think it's a good strategy, but people are jumping to some wild conclusions.Yeah I know. Ladd was pretty respectful in her response but her coach went scorched earth.

He wasn’t wrong though. She looked like shit those first 3 rounds.
If Ladd felt like she was abused then she should leave that gym ASAP.To be clear, I don't think it's a good strategy, but people are jumping to some wild conclusions.
