Veteran coach Diogenes Assahida could be in some hot water.
Earlier this month, a video that went viral on social media in Brazil showed Assahida attacking Ulisses Teodoro in front of his muay thai school in Campina Grande do Sul, 18 miles outside of Curitiba, on April 7.
According to Assahida, he felt he was like “a father” for Teodoro, felt disrespected after Teodoro, who left the team, walked in front of his Assahida’s gym wearing a shirt of his new team.
Assahida has trained former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva in the past, when he beat Rich Franklin to win the UFC belt in 2006.
