New Jersey’s state gambling authority has apparently banned sportsbooks from taking action on any fights that involve former UFC fighter and current Glory MMA coach James Krause.
Krause was set to corner Miles Johns at last weekend’s UFC Vegas 65 but was told the night before the fight that he wouldn’t be allowed to attend the event. While he hasn’t been formally suspended from coaching at UFC cards, the 36-year-old is currently part of an investigation by the promotion’s betting integrity partner Don Best Sports.
Even though that investigation is still ongoing, ESPN’s David Payne Purdum reported that the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement isn’t willing to risk allowing bets involving Krause until the probe has concluded.
