Quick read
Former Jackson Wink general manager Mikhail Lyubimov has shared a series of revelations about the gym's fighters and culture. Among the disclosures: Josh Hockett's primary sparring partner is a welterweight grappler with a losing record, and Greg Jackson will not be in Hockett's corner at the White House event due to his Democratic political views conflicting with the venue's association with President Trump. Lyubimov also revealed that Jon Jones had Roman Dolidze removed from Jackson Wink after Dolidze was consistently giving Jones and the gym's BJJ black belts trouble in sparring, and that Claressa Shields' MMA transition stalled because she was too resistant to working on wrestling and grappling despite dominating everyone on the feet.
