Edmond Tarverdyan's credentials as a professional fight trainer and the quality of his boxing training have often drawn ridicule and mockery from the media and the MMA community.[8][9][10] Tarverdyan got into trouble with the California State Athletic Commission about lying about his arrest history leading to his corner licence being revoked.[11] The major criticism being that his fighter's skills appear to stagnate or decline under his coaching methods.[12][13][14]

Career
Edmond Tarverdyan began practicing martial arts since he was 16,[15] this resulted in Tarverdyan winning the WBC US Muay Thai title.[16] He mistakenly credits this as the WBC international title because he was originally supposed to fight for that title against Brian Carlos, though a last minute change lead to this fight being scrapped in favor of the WBC USA title fight. After retiring from professional fighting Taverdyan took up teaching MMA.[17]
Media
Tarverdyan was a coach on The Ultimate Fighter: Team Rousey vs. Team Tate.[18]
