Team Alpha Male members Urijah Faber, Joseph Benavidez, Chad Mendes, Danny Castillo and TJ Dillashaw have gone undefeated since bringing on head coach Duane Ludwig. Go inside the gym to see why it works.

This video was really intriguing. Duane does have extremely unique knowledge in terms of Stand-up fighting AS WELL AS takedown defense. He's teaching this to fighters who are already ridiculous grapplers and takedown artists, who are also VERY athletic. Perfect combination of coach and fighter(s).

Of course you are right in that they have lost before, and they hold no titles. But since Ludwig joined their team, they've gone 17-0. Which is pretty impressive imo, belts or no belts.

Iskusmarines nah he won me money. Lost me on an accumulator though put 1st round i didn't buy the trash talk, i thought cody's boxing experience would allow him to deal with cruz's style but i didn't think it'd be a decision thats for sure. Cruz seemed a bit slow to me not as sharp as usual but that was probably due to cody and his movement i'll have to rewatch to see the subtleties.

As another example, in soccer Jose Mourinho was hardly an amazing player and could barely break it as a pro, yet he is an incredible coach and is widely considered one of the best today. Someone doesn't need to have the abilities to be able to teach, they just need to understand.
