Fighters changing camps in a normal. Indeed, few fighters train exclusively with one trainer for the entire career. Never changing camps from pro debut to success to retirement would be notable.
However, the latest change is news. Edmond Tarverdyan has been widely reviled over what is perceived as his role in the fall of Ronda Rousey. No one put it more pointedly than Rousey’s mother, Dr. AnnMaria De Mars. After Rousey’s first loss, Dr. De Mars, the first American to win a world championship in Judo, implored Ronda to switch camps in brutally direct language.
“Ronda trained with an idiot,” said Dr. De Mars. “She trained with an idiot and a fraud. … Ronda has a lot of talent. She came into that gym with a very strong background of training at the Olympic level and it carried her a long way.
“She needs to get away from some egomaniac fraud and be herself. Ronda as herself can beat anybody on the planet. … I actually was a world champion. I didn’t just make it up and put it on my website. So when someone is talking about coaching I know if it’s bulls*** and this guy is a complete fraud.”
“I told Ronda more than once, ‘I know what training to beat the world looks like and this isn’t it.’ … Even if she was with a good coach I think going to a different place would really improve her. When you’re with someone who wants to keep you from going to other places, that’s a bad coach that doesn’t have your best interests at heart.
“I hope [Tarverdyan] loses his license or goes to jail because either of those is a possibility. I think if she changes gyms she has an outstanding chance of winning. If she doesn’t? As a statistician, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior. If you do the same things with the same people you can expect the same results.”
Rousey did the same thing and got the same result. (See

There is no work from Rousey whether she will even fight again, but her boyfriend Travis Browne has left Tarverdyan’s Glendale Fight Club and moved to BlackHouse.
The first indication came via the social network, and it was just a hint.

Surprised more people aren't talking about this.

UFC heavyweight Travis Browne is no longer being coached by Edmond Tarverdyan at Glendale Fight Club after it emerged that he’s left to train at Black House instead.
Browne has trained under Tarverdyan since 2014 along with his girlfriend Ronda Rousey, and had up until this point resisted leaving despite his coach coming under fire from many sources and his results inside the Octagon leaving a lot to be desired.
Tarverdyan’s biggest critic has been Rousey’s mother AnnMaria De Mars, who publicly called into question his coaching methods and character prior to the superstar’s first KO loss to Holly Holm in 2015.
Other notable figures, including UFC color commentator Joe Rogan also criticized Tarverdyan’s coaching advice during that fight, and further questions about his abilities have now been raised after the first round beatdown Rousey suffered at the hands of Amanda Nunes this past December.
Browne’s record under Tarverdyan has also been less than impressive, losing three of his five fights during that time, while sliding from No.3 to No.9 in the heavyweight rankings.
Now 34 years-old, Browne will hope to get his career back on track at Black House, home to fighters like Anderson Silva, the Nogueira brothers, Glover Teixeria and Lyoto Machida ahead of his next fight with Derrick Lewis at UFC 208 on February 11th.

Has anyone confirmed he has cut ties with Edmund? This could simply be a case of him working elsewhere while Edmund deals with his financial issues.

He posted pictures on Instagram of him working out at Blackhouse. He tagged Blackhouse, but didn't tag Edmond. Then a few moments later UFC Insiders confirmed.

Again, that means he is there now, not that he has left ET completely. If he has any brain cells left, he will stay away from Edmund, but all reports I have seen can only confirm he has been training at Blackhouse.

Odds on him cheating on Rousey in Brazil?

Well, really the only question that even matters at this point is ...... is he still under Rouseys thumb?

Blackhouse has gyms in Los Angeles and San Diego. Travis grew up in SD, so it doesnt sound like he'll be far away from Rousey.
Sidenote: Edmond is a f---ing joke. I hope he loses his gym.

He was never "under her thumb". He was inside her celebrity bubble, trying to raise his worth. He's no prisoner. He's a moocher.
