Robert Follis var en av huvudtränarna på Xtreme Couture fram till november, och har tränat fighters som före detta bantamviktsmästarinnan Miesha Tate, Kevin Lee och Heather Jo-Clark.
Det är oklart vad som hänt med Follis, förutom att han har gått bort. Vissa rapporter menar att det var ett självmord, men dessa uppgifter har inte gått att bekräfta i skrivande stund.

MMA-världen slöt upp bakom Follis och tog en stund på sociala medier att hylla honom.
A friend is a person who is there for you when you need an ear to listen or a shoulder to lean on. We are friends and I am terribly sorry that my ear or shoulder wasn't enough to help you get through difficult times. We love and respect you Coach/Partner/Friend!

I'm saddened to hear about the passing of Robert Follis. I've seen some of his Xtreme Couture family tweeting about their loss & I don't know much on details. What I do know is he was someone who didn't just brighten a room, he brightened the lives of fighters around him. RIP

Got word this morning that my longtime coach passed away.
Robert Follis was a special type of guy who always stuck with you. When I was badly injured, he encouraged me to keep studying fights on the sidelines, knowing it would take me somewhere. Thanks for everything, coach. RIP pic.twitter.com/I33FBkbVUZ

Coach Follis cornered against me twice in the @rfafighting, vs @silverxsmith & @bristolmarunde so he knew me well. When I had to fight teammate @dhlimamma on #TUF25 he was the 1st Coach I asked to corner me. We put on a great performance Together!!! pic.twitter.com/Iz6Q5ozzfI— Gilbert Jamal Smith (@gjsvictorymma) December 17, 2017

Wordsmith @JESnowden summed up Robert Follis well: “He had that amazing positive energy. But not in a showy way. Just quietly picked people up and carried them forward.”
