MMA community remembers Robert Follis
If anyone wants to know the type of person Robert Follis was, ask Tim Credeur. The UFC and Ultimate Fighter veteran and coach wasn’t one of Follis’ students at Team Quest or Xtreme Couture. Instead, Follis, who passed away Friday at the age of 48, had trained a trio of fighters – Chael Sonnen, Nate Quarry and Ed Herman - to beat Louisiana’s Credeur.
“If you want to know how incredible of a guy Robert Follis was, he cornered three fighters against me in three of the biggest fights of my life and three of my losses,” Credeur said. “He coached guys to beat me – very well, might I add. And regardless of that, I still loved Robert Follis.”
