With a strong base in Greco Roman Wrestling, UFC Legend Couture has previously trained extensively with SBGi to improve his stand-up and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.  In return, Randy transformed the way that SBGi trained clinch range and is acknowledged for his influence on the clinch curriculum currently taught at Straight Blast Gyms and their affiliates around the world.  

SBGi President and head coach, Matt Thornton helped prepare Randy for fighting MMA in the Ultimate Fighting Championships - "The training at the Straight Blast Gym has been instrumental in my preparation for reality fighting in the UFC. Matt's expertise in stand-up and ground fighting techniques has helped me win the Ultimate Fighting Championships. There is no rest for the best!"
