UFC 207 will mark the end of Leister Bowling's MMA coaching career.
Following a decade-long run, Bowling, the head coach of Elevation Fight Team in Colorado, informed the team last week that he will be stepping down following Friday's event, after he corners T.J. Dillashaw, Neil Magny and Brandon Thatch in their respective bouts.
Bowling provided the following exclusive statement about his decision to MMAFighting.com:
"I am not one to ever leave anything unfinished, which makes this very hard for me because I feel like Elevation Fight Team still has so much to accomplish.
