John Hackleman is best known as the man in the corner of former UFC champion Chuck (The Iceman) Liddell, but he’s also the trainer behind a host of other martial artists.
In this video shot at Hackleman’s MMA center, we meet the rest of the Pit Fight Team—including Antonio Banuelos, Michael Gahan, Gregg Baker Jr. and Veronica Castilleja—as they train under the Pitmaster.
Also on the team but not featured in this training session is Court McGee, winner of the 11th season of The Ultimate Fighter.
