A potentially major MMA story brews in the wake of an investigation into suspicious betting activity around a UFC bout earlier this month.
According to Glory MMA fighter Miles Johns, who earned a unanimous decision win Saturday at UFC Fight Night 215 in Las Vegas, coach James Krause was “pulled” from his corner one night prior to the event. Johns said the promotion was “suspending him” from being cageside.
A subsequent report from ESPN.com stated Krause has not been formally suspended from cornering, but the UFC and Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) came to a conclusion that Krause should not corner during an ongoing investigation into one of his fighters.
