Footage of Dustin Poirier training with manager/guru/coach Joshua Fabia?
By
VM StaffThere was time when Steven Seagal graced the MMA world with his presence; teaching Anderson Silva the front kick, Lyoto Machida the flying front kick (or crane kick if you like) and a secret training session with Daniel Cormier. Greg Jackson, Javier Mendez, Trevor Whitman are all great coaches and have earned their spot on MMA Mount Rushmore. They lack that X Factor though, what comedian and Rat King Theo Von would call “The Dark Arts.”
Seagal was a mainstay in MMA but when we needed him most…he vanished. Enter guru Joshua Fabia, the leader of the School of Self Awareness. He swaggered into Diego Sanchez’s life, all 5 foot 1 of him (according to Sean O’Malley), and became his coach/manager/ OnlyFans account holder/sports therapist/sponsor/nutritionist/advisor.
He worked with Diego Sanchez, toughening one of the sports toughest men by hanging him upside down like a rotisserie chicken and hitting him. All the idiot coaches who spend hours teaching their students proper defense have not reached this higher principle, hitting someone who is famous for being hittable….genius. The two eventually went their separate ways, as Fabia’s “baller moves” were too much for Sanchez to stomach, and seemed to make everyone wary of the Self-Awareness master Fabia.
Dustin Poirier is the latest fighter to avail of Fabia’s coaching expertise (his greatest athletic accomplishment to date being that he was in the first Kindergarten Rugby league in Christchurch, New Zealand). It appears that this footage is before the last McGregor fight (coincidence? I think not!) they went over some wrestling and striking (Fabia has made Jiu-Jitsu obsolete, because if you a grab a man by his balls and his throat then it is all over.)
