This looks like some weird UFC videogame knockout where the knocked out fighter clipped through the cage and got stuck

Amazing

Apparently Mayhem got arrested yet again, this time for assault on a police officer with a deadly weapon

http://mmajunkie.com/2015/10/jason-mayhem-miller-back-in-jail-after-another-alleged-assault-on-police-officer

quote:

A press release from OCSD said officers heard a female screaming inside Miller’s house when they arrived. They then encountered an aggressive Miller, who reportedly threw a large ceramic tile at them and brandished a large fire extinguisher and metal pole before retreating to his backyard.

Officers shot Miller with a Taser, but the fight continued for eight minutes before he was subdued.

Edit: What is it with him trying to attack people with fire extinguishers? Didn't he do that when he wrecked a church a while back too? lol

As someone that came into MMA fandom (in a more than extremely casual way) around 2010 with Silva vs Sonnen 1 hype bringing me in I always thought Fedor was this unbeatable monster from overseas because I never bothered to look into the records of his competition or anything like that. I basically just took the hype at surface level and believed it until I saw him actually fight a few times outside of highlight videos. Unless you were a serious fan that watched outside of american promotions it's pretty easy to believe the hype surrounding him I guess. Then he lost a few times in a row in strikeforce and the aura was gone. I just missed peak Fedor hype apparently at the time.

Edit: And I mean lets be serious here - The Last Emperor is a really loving good nickname in the realm of MMA fighter nicknames.

He got pretty crazy when ariel asked him about throwing fights

"If you're asking how I won that one - he cracked his shin against my knee and couldn't continue. That's how I won" is a pretty great answer to how you've only won a single fight in your last eleven though. He keeps mentioning 'having to make a paycheck' so at least he's not trying too hard to hide it.

He does seem pretty wacky upstairs though but Ariel brings that out of most people just by being himself. Previously I had only seen a few interviews from him where he's mostly happy and smiling next to happy japanese fans or he's playing tug o war with a bear.

I would say I'm not surprised they're trying to capitalize on his name being out there right now but I don't know that anyone gives a poo poo about him to begin with and they probably don't know his name outside of 'that guy in the crowd khabib tried to kill' so they should probably call him that in the promos

Wish Chuck was able to get a commentary gig instead of fighting again. He's looking pretty old and slow.
