Arlovski's Opponents Show The Tragedies and Train Wreck Lives of MMA

[TJ Dillashank]

Holy shit, I had no idea about Travis Fulton.

First-time im finding about this to I didn't even know he was dead let alone the child porn shit

I was just being my usual troll self and ended up with a bunch of priest comments.

Yeah that one backfired sir lol.

 

[StonedLemur]

What a stupid post

The priest part is about as true as it gets sir.

 

[snugglecakes]

is brett rogers still in the slammer? its been been years

Don’t forget Andre fought Travis Browne and now Travis is married with a young healthy child, and set financially.

According to TS it’s bc of Andre.

yeah good poi… oh wait … domestic violence accusations. Got CTEd into a stupor that made him leave a good gym (at the time) n go over to Edmonds… CTE induced delusionally states that edmond made him improve his striking leaps and bounds… went on an embarrassing losing streak and rage quit from the sport… went and tried to get face time over at dubya dubya wrasslin… was told to get off camera u fuxkin leech after just a few shows

You forgot Brendan Schaub. Everything about him is a tragedy.

Sorry to correct you but I believe you mistakingly mispelled Travesty.

Sad terrible stories.

imo I reckon there should be a life death league for Life sentence and death row inmates.

Oh come on, let's not act like those involved in MMA are the only ones who can be POS.

And let's not act like MMA turn them into POS.

And let's not act like MMA turn them into POS.

Not sure why I thought of this, but I realized Arlovski has fought a very colorful list of opponents with more than their share of tragedies, crimes and even deaths. I'm not saying MMA caused all of their problems, but it's definitely not a career for those seeking security and a low-risk life.

• Datsik - Nut case who spent time in prison in both Russia (armed robbery) and Norway
• Aaron Brink - Porn star and father of a recent night club mass shooter
• Tim Sylvia - Biggest rival with 4 fights. Became extremely obese (371 pounds in last fight) and unhealthy as his career ended. Most likely a CTE case
• Justin Eilers (RIP) - Shot in dispute with his stepfather in 2008
• Brett Rogers - Became a wife beater and man groper (3 or 4 counts of grabbing men in the crotch/butt or asking for sex)
• Bigfoot - One of the saddest cases of a fighter who took way too much damage late in his career. KO'd in 8 of his last 10 MMA fights plus barekuckle and boxing (by Datsik of all people)
• Travis Fulton - After 320 fights (what are the chance he had CTE?), he was charged with child porn possession and exploitation of a child. Committed suicide in jail (or somebody killed him).
• Rumble (RIP) - Had domestic violence charges and accusations. Also charged for ID theft. Died surprisingly young from Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and non-Hodgkin lymphoma.

It's definitely a sad list. Good for Arlovski to keep being a family man and a well-rounded competitive athlete after > 20 years in this brutal sport.
