Otro peleador deja a Juanito Ibarra

El peleador francés Cheick Kongo quien al igual que Quinton Jackson era manejado por Juanito Ibarra, ha decidió seguir los pasos de Rampage y unirse al Wolfslair. Gimnasio con base en Liverpool y donde entrenan peleadores como Michael Bisping y Paul Kelly.

Según Kongo, se cambia de gimnasio por estar mas cercano a casa (París) y ademas este cambio podría ayudar con algunos problemas que ha tenido para negociar un nuevo contrato con UFC.

En teoría Kongo y Jackson dejan a Ibarra en buenos términos, pero recientes declaraciones de Tito Ortiz en entrevista para Punch Drunk Gamer acerca del trato entre Ibarra y Quinton Jackson nos hace pensar otra cosa:

PDG: Hopefully, what do you think of him changing trainers and camps from Juanito Ibarra to Team Wolfslair?

Ortiz: Let me explain this to you because it really pisses me off that Ibarra has done what he has done, he is a thief. I have been running training camps for seven years up in Big Bear California and the most that my camp has cost a fighter to attend is $35,000. Ibarra was charging Jackson $65,000 to go to Big Bear. I don’t understand that!! He was being very disrespectful and taking advantage of ‘Rampage’. Including travel, training partners, food and lodging, the most ever was $35,000, maybe if you flew in more trainers…$40K. Where did that extra money go that Ibarra was charging? ‘Rampage’ is really pissed and he feels betrayed that he was taken advantage of and I couldn’t agree more with him. I don’t care if Juanito reads this or hears about it anywhere, he already knows that he is blackballed. I don’t care who you are; fighters work very hard for the money they earn and I feel slighted for even knowing Juanito.
