Confusing Table
[edit]The table should be moved into text - perhaps a section on Notable Students. Right now it is confusing and ugly.Peter Rehse (talk) 08:07, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
Factual errors
[edit]Somebody's been having some fun with the text: In 2009 Greg released an instructional book about his fighting style called, "Jackson's MMA - The Stand Up Game."[4] In 2010 Greg released another instructional book about his ground fighting style called, "Jackson's MMA - The Ground Game."[5] Greg has a new book waiting to be released in 2013 called, "Jackson's MMA - The Game of Boring Decisions." That last book is of course not due until 2014, as we all know.

Controversy
[edit]Surprised a heading like this doesn't exist.
After Jones defeated Machida, there is a recording of Jackson telling Jones to check on Machida in order to earn fans (stated explicitly for that purpose).
During several fights on the Bellator reality show, Jackson is constantly feeding the Judges perspective (you are beating him from the bottom [a ridiculous notion], etc) rather than coaching his fighter.
Jackson is typically blamed for fighters turning boring, and going for point scoring and earning decisions, which was the tendency with his most notable fighters, St. Pierre, and more recently, Jon Jones.
There's lot of other examples, but you could easily source material that backs the idea of him being the most controversial corner man and coach in the sport. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.205.235.66 (talk) 22:36, 30 April 2014 (UTC)
