Diego Sanchez’s trainer on his credentials: ‘There’s no papers to justify real’

School of Self-Awareness founder Joshua Fabia has been Diego Sanchez’s chief trainer and lone cornerman for two fights now. Their most recent collaboration took place at UFC Rio Rancho this weekend, where the TUF 1 alum picked up a disqualification win due to an illegal knee.

Fabia’s unorthodox corner advice that night was questioned by Daniel Cormier and longtime trainer Trevor Wittman, who were both on commentary duties. Both Sanchez and Fabia fired back, calling Cormier and Wittman’s criticisms a “smear campaign” and a form of “media bullying.”

Fabia was also interviewed in a recent episode of the Luke Thomas Show where he was asked about his credentials.
