What would be the best camp for Diego?

If I could influence Diego I would be all about getting him into a camp that has the best striking coaches as thats his Achilles heal. On the other hand Couture seems to be willing to take anyone willing to listen and I like how forest looks after going there you can tell he is making advancements in his game. I cant remember where he's training though might not be an option. Option or not I think training with Randy is always a good move.

He could learn a lot from Hughes too but Im sure that would never happen. Hughes wouldn’t be the type of fighter that would want to teach someone he might have to fight down the road it’s a conflict of interest, none the less if he wanted to teach Diego it would be good for him.

Chute Boxe USA is a great idea because his Stand up needs much improvement. Also going to Henderson's Team Quest would be great for him he could train with Sokky and Henderson who both have great stand up.

The first WW to put together a stand up game is going to dominate the divison

I starting to become retarted how many people are training at extreme couture. I hate to say but beside Forrest Griffen beating Hector Rameriez what has Extreme Couture done that is so amazing. I like Randy and everything and Wanderlei is one of my favorites but It's getting crazy how many people are training there and it's not like they have turned any crappy fighters in to gods.

Dude, Hendo and Sokky have good stand up but they're both grapplers, not strikers. The reason their stand up is so good is because of Shawn Tompkins, the kick boxing coach at Quest.

Extreme Couture hasn't been open for even a year yet. (Correct me if I'm wrong about that please) It's hard for them to produce prospects in such a short time. But they are building a good camp down there, and we'll really see it in some upcoming matches. Ala, Couture vs Gonzaga, and Forrest vs Shogun.

Diego should go to 'Camp Sukacawkwad'...it's located on castro street in beautiful downtown San Fran.

He would fit right in :)
lol.. I haven't studied up the camps yet, so I can't really comment on which camp would be good for Diego. Another thing might be worth looking at is what Diego brings to these camps for the other fighters fighting there.

No I'm just saying it seems like that every fighter is going to train at Extreme Couture now days and there are a lot of other gyms. It seems like everyone thinks Extreme Couture is the be all end all and I just haven't seen the gym do anything yet I think it will be great but for now I think it's overrated.

Tompkins is a monster teaches very well from everything I've heard but Henderson can teach stand up since I read an interview were Sokky credited Hendo for his stand up. Tompkins isn't the only guy at Team Quest teaching stand up.
With that said Tompkins is the guy who molded Chris Hordecki into the fighter he is so him training Diego wouldn't be a bad thing.

I think once randy retires then the camp will be much better.

Any team that can make him realize he isn't the MMA Mesiah would be good for him. A team that can just beat on him. I really think his weakness is his head, it always has been, just the only person to get in there was Kos. Diego has the skills, but he needs to go to Militage (sp?) or some place where they will put his head to the challenge.
