Brian Stann Explains Move From Greg Jacksons Gym | UFC NEWS
“The shift has gone great. When I’m here in Atlanta, I’ve got an extremely great group of guys – I brought in a great group of guys. There’s a lot of focus, there’s a lot of eyes on every single round I’m putting in. There’s a tremendous focus on drilling and practicing technique every day; it’s an environment that I found where I’m improving in every area faster than I was previously… Fighters, when they get to certain levels, it’s difficult to train for a big fight when you’re in a gym where there are 15 other guys training for a big fight. Sometimes you can get lost in there, and there’s not enough individual attention on what you need to accomplish technically in order to prepare for your fight.”
Greg Jackson is known for building some of the best Mixed Martial Arts fighters in the world. His stable includes the likes of Jon JOnes, Carlos Condit, Diego Sanchez and many more top named fighters. Which is why many have found it puzzling that during his rise through the ranks, UFC middleweight fighter Brian Stann packed up and moved his camp to his hometown in Atlanta, Georgia.
In this interview with UFC.com he gives fans some insight into his decision process.

Smart move Brian.
Get as far away as possible.
Notice how everybody is ****ing leaving that camp….Guillard, Florian, Evans, and Stann…plus all of the people talking out recently about Jacksons like Diego…sounds like this camp is imploding probably due to Van Arnsdale and Rashad exposing Greg Jokeson
I think Greg Jackson will do just fine without those guys.
I thought Florian was always with Mark Dellagratte and with Tri Star?
florian doesnt fight anymore… so why is his name even in this convo?
we’ll see if this camp is any good when he fights Bisping…
Evans said Jackson is a.guy who likes to ride the meal ticket. So fighters Like Stann don’t get the training they need.
also, albuquerque kinda sucks…
Greg Jackson focuses on the fighters who are champs or most likely to become champs and make him the most money.
Great move stann i dont want u to see u go that route of jackson. How long till diego leaves?
