UFC fans are no strangers to epic coach-fighter moments, like Dave Lovell hyping up Leon Edwards or Dricus DuPlessis sharing a controversial kiss with his coach. These moments often steal the headlines, but this time, it’s a bit different. Victoria Dudakova is going viral not for a heartwarming or motivational moment but for slapping her coach in frustration at UFC Vegas 101. The unexpected scene is turning heads and sparking plenty of conversation.
Victoria Dudakova’s UFC Vegas 101 loss marked a tough night for the strawweight, as she was stopped by ground and pound in the second round against Fatima Kline. The defeat puts her UFC record at 2-2, following two consecutive losses after an undefeated streak in her first eight pro fights.
After the fight ended and the official decision loomed, a bloodied and shaken Victoria Dudakova seemed frustrated with her corner. Gasanali Gasanaliev, head coach of Russia’s national MMA team, found himself in an unexpected moment of drama at UFC Vegas 101. His student, Dudakova, slapped him on live TV following her tough loss to Fatima Kline.
While frustration and emotions after a tough loss are understandable, seeing Victoria Dudakova slap her coach was a completely unapologetic move. The rawness of the moment might have come from the heat of defeat, but publicly slapping her coach crosses a line that feels out of place, especially considering the coach-student dynamic.
