According to the Associated Press, Minnesota assistant wrestling coach Marty Morgan is leaving the program in order to focus full time and exclusively on his former collegiate champion Brock Lesnar's fledgling MMA career.Brock Lesnar (picture) is on the rise in the UFC heavyweight ranks. He will fight against Randy Couture for the promotions heavyweight championship in November. He also was once an NCAA heavyweight champion at the college.
Morgan spent 16 years coaching at Minnesota after wrestling for the college himself. He says he will take the next year to concentrate on helping Lesnar train in the MMA field before reevaluating his plans then.
Lesnar won his last UFC match at Target Center in Minneapolis, Minnesota last month.
