A physical altercation at the gym left Juan Gomez more concerned about the damage to his reputation than any actual injury.
The striking coach recently found himself getting into a fight with surfer Wesley Santos, better known in the MMA community as the husband of UFC strawweight Mackenzie Dern. As Dern recalled on a recent episode of What the Heck, Gomez and Santos clashed after Gomez called her and Santos to the Black House gym in Los Angeles to discuss what she believed to be an issue related to monetary compensation from her last fight (she later clarified that she wasn’t exactly sure what it was that Gomez was upset about).
