BAD MMA News — Thu, 19 Jan 2023 02:52:06 +0000

Brandon Moreno ’s preparation for his upcoming championship bout didn’t come under ideal circumstances. The UFC interim flyweight champion was forced to split and cut all communication with his head coach James Krause just a little over a month away from his fourth title fight with rival Deiveson Figueiredo at Saturday’s UFC 283 in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This drastic change came after the UFC issued a ban that prohibited fighters trained by Krause from competing in the octagon, as the Glory MMA & Fitness coach is currently being investigated for potential insider betting. This was a big shock for Moreno (20-6-2 MMA, 8-3-2 UFC)

UFC flyweight Jeff Molina suspended by Nevada Athletic Commission

BAD MMA News — Tue, 27 Dec 2022 22:42:01 +0000

The Nevada Athletic Commission has suspended UFC flyweight Jeff Molina . According to UFC broadcast partner ESPN, the reason for his ban is not known, but it is likely related to an investigation into the fight between Darrick Minner and Shayilan Nuerdanbieke on November 5. In the hours leading up to that battle, which Minner lost by TKO early in the first round, suspicious betting patterns were uncovered. One bet that became popular the day before the bout predicted that Nuerdanbieke would win by first-round TKO. It was eventually discovered that Minner had been injured prior to the fight, but neither he nor Glory MMA & Fitness instructor James Krause , a former UFC fighter, told the NAC about the injury.
