Everyone responds to extreme adversity in different ways, but that's some sorry ****, whatever the cause-of-the-moment. I wonder if he'll get cut. 9/10 yes IMO.

I liked watching him fight, I'm sure another league would snatch him up, quick-like (were he to be released). Heavy hands = ko's = fun

Dana fired him. Good riddance.

That's a shame, but zuffa really can't support dudes who are trained fighters that abuse women. It has to be pretty serious as zuffa is really good about working with fighters under the scrutiny if the law, al la Rampage, Hermes, etc. Too bad, was fun to see Brett put people to sleep, even if it's been awhile.

He finally wins a fight and it sends him to the clink. Some guys have no luck. Maybe if he was as famous as Mayweather no one would care that he beat the mother of his children.
