Last week, the American news announced the return of the partnership between Maurício Shogun and Sérgio Cunha, who trained the UFC champion for the last time when he would fight Chuck Liddel, and he won that light heavyweight bout. In a chat with TATAME, Cunha denied any agreement with the champion.
There’re lots of interviews of me on American websites… The last one was on the beginning of last week and caused a heat, because it had something about Shogun doing a camp with me. I’d like to thank the affection and the recognition of me and my work, but I believe that the reporter didn’t get it right or got too excited, because we’ve talked about many athletes whom I worked with, but I’d like to clear that up and say I didn’t said that about Shogun, clarifies Sérgio.
Despite things are not set, Cunha tells he would work with Maurício again. That doesn’t mean it can’t happen on his next fight or again in the future. Our experience with the camp against Chuck was great for both of us, because we’re close friends and we’re always in touch, said leaving the doors open to all other champion he have trained.
It can be (Murilo) Ninja, (Rodrigo) Minotauro, Anderson (Silva), (Murilo) Bustamante among many others whom I had the pleasure to work with in the past and we kept in touch. All the athletes who trained with me are welcome to come and train with me again wherever I am, mainly these one that are the ones that are my friends and I have a special affection for them and a way of work which has been proved to work for them, highlights Sérgio.
