I love learning about the coaches. They are incredible people and have very creative minds
My favorite coach in the sport, great guy and just knows how to relate to guys and guide them. You can tell he truly cares about his guys.
The best athletes never make the best coaches. It’s a different animal. And Eric seems like he’s done really well especially with Ngannou’s last two fights.

The coaches that treat their athletes like their own blood seem to make the greats. Nicksick is a great example. 100

Extreme Couture have excellent SARMS for their fighters
For many years in mma, Greg Jackson & Javier Mendez were seen as probably the 2 OGs in the coaching business & their resumes are impressive but Eric Nicksick seems like that cool big brother many wish they could’ve had especially when you see how he interacts with his fighters. Francis Ngannou & every other fighter at that gym is so lucky to have a coach like him.
What a great room (especially if WW-MW), so much talent there. Strickland, Curtis, Salikhov, Ngannou, Aljo, Ige, Soriano, etc,etc,etc...

One of the most cerebral and humble coaches! Eric is amazing! 👏
this might be the best video yall have put out.
Thank you, UFC, for the segment. Really meant a lot!! 🤙🏼❤️
I gained so much respect for him after the podcast with Flex Lewis with him and Sean Strickland. This makes it double-fold. What a great leader.
Gusbumps all over!!! God damn this was intense!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥💥💥💥🌋
Eric Nicksick is a force of nature. To make Francis whose had 0% grappling ability to secure a win by grappling. Man's a legend
Love ❤️ brother Thank you 🙏 for sharing Eric Nicksick
Inspiring to hear, for all of the people that didn't put their talents and gifts to the next level, doesn't mean that you can't teach anyone everything that it takes to be great. Plenty of us still have a path in life, regardless of what route we chose, just matters about getting to our destination. Awesome stuff bro, raised in Vegas as well and here it's not hard to veer off but with growth comes learning, understanding, experience and perseverance. Keep it up!!! Wish you and your team all the successes that come.
Its so amazing seeing fighters follow exactly what the coach says, like he said its like a video game. If the coach knows what hes talking about then listen to him
This dude is a real one.
World class coach & gym!
wow this is very cool. more of these here please!
Eric is not only one of the best coaches in the game but prob one of the BEST people as well. Not many people like him in the world. Great to see his success continue to grow and grow. Great coach but also great dad, husband, friend etc.
Respect coach

He messed it all up cause he got greedy. He should have created a great balance between coaching world class fighters and smashing Sanko on the sides, what more could you want.
We need one for James Krause
Where are those idiots saying Francis didn't sweep Gane at round 5? where are they? you just heard the coach say it now...
He called Francis a kid? Savage. Francis is the epitome of what a grown a** man is.
Eric 7:55 7:57
Gane fucked up when he went for leg lock. Low percentage sub used mainly to improve position. Unless you an expert at it or trying to use it to get up fighters need to trash the leg lock as a sub
