I'm sure it was a simple oversight.
After all, Edmond Tarverdyan watched his world get turned upside down when his prized pupil, former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) women's bantamweight champion Ronda Rousey, surrendered her 135-pound strap to Holly Holm earlier this month in Australia.
As a result, Tarverdyan was a no-show for his most recent creditor meeting, which came on the heels of his bankruptcy filing back in May. The longtime owner and head trainer of Glendale Fighting Club claims over $700,000 in debt against just $3,300 in assets.
His absence at last week's hearing -- the second this year -- jeopardizes his bankruptcy filing, according to Paul Gift at Bloody Elbow.
