Although Tito Ortiz says he planted his former wrestling coach in Stephan Bonnar’s camp ahead of their Bellator 131 showdown, Bonnar says the allegation is a comical embarrassment.
“That’s hilarious,” Bonnar told MMAFighting.com. “He’s just fishing for something. The bottom line is [wrestling coach] Paul Herrera is not working with him. Paul Herrera’s working with me on my wrestling defense and what Tito’s good at.
“I could watch Tito’s fights. I know them all. I know his double leg, his underhook to knee tap. We worked on defending his game. If it is true, it doesn’t matter because my wrestling got a lot better working with Paul Herrera. No one else can be in the cage with Tito.”
