Team Tompkins
Team Tompkins is one of the camps participating in the International Fight League. Coached by former UFC Heavyweight and Light Heavyweight Champion Randy Couture, Team Tompkins took the place of Team Xtreme Couture after a lawsuit from the UFC prevented former UFC Heavyweight champion Randy Couture from having any association with other MMA events while still technically under his UFC contract. Team Tompkins takes place of the Los Angeles Anacondas which used to be coached by Shawn Tompkins who now coaches with Team Xtreme.
Team Tompkins was established in 2008 when the IFL switched to a more camp based system then a team based system.
