Maynard, faced with climbing back up the ladder, felt it was time for a change. A Las Vegas mainstay since 2006, he left Xtreme Couture and moved to American Kickboxing Academy in San Jose, Ca. But it wasn’t simply about freshening things up.
“Gray just was not prepared. It was really one of those deals where a coach within his staff just would not pay attention any other coaches. He was getting really upset if any other coach tried to explain to him ‘hey, this is how hard I’m going to push Gray in my session. You need to back off in your session so he can recover,” said Trigg, a former trainer partner of Maynard’s at Xtreme Couture. “[Maynard] wasn’t prepared. It’s ultimately up to one coach that didn’t pay attention.”
