2. Joe Son
3. Lee Murray
4. Jonathan Koppenhaver
5. Alexander Emelianenko
As an MMA fighter Joe Son found no success.
His entire pro record in mma adds up to four
losses and no wins, so you may not be aware
of Joe Son. You would more likely recognize
him from his role in Austin Powers: Internation-
al Man of Mystery. In 2008 he plead guilty to
felony vandalism, but what came out later was
much more heinous. Son’s DNA sample linked
him to a 1990 gang rape. He was charged with
conspiracy to torture and commit murder. He
was found guilty on conspiracy to torture, and
later found guilty for killing his cell mate. He
is currently serving a life sentence without the
possibility of parole.
As a professional fighter he had a pretty good
run, but as a human being he made some ter-
rible choices. After committing the largest bank
heist in U.K. history he fled to Morocco. He was
later captured and is currently serving out a
25 year sentence for his crimes. Along with
drug related issues, he also attempted to escape
prison in Morocco, but was unsuccessful in his
attempt.
More commonly known as “Warmachine” can
not stay on the right side of the law. He has a
checkered past, with a long rap sheet. The ma-
jority of his criminal history is related to violent
crime. In 2012 he was released from prison af-
ter serving nearly two years for a felony assault
conviction. He returned to fighting, and had a
remained present in social media. His relation-
ship with adult film star, Christy Mack, was very
public. In 2014 he went on the run after alleg-
edly assaulting Mack and another a man. Cur-
rently, Warmachine is imprisoned and the trial
is still underway. In total he is facing thirty two
charges, one of which is attempted murder.
While Fedor may be the greatest of all time, his
brother is far from it. Alexander Emelianenko
has been held in prison for the past year while
his trial takes place. The charges levied against
him are sexual assault, kidnapping, and forced
use of narcotic drugs or psychotropic substanc-
es. The prosecution is pushing for a five year
sentence, but Emelianenko has plead not guilty
to all charges. He has admitted to having an in-
timate relationship with the alleged victim, but
states that it was consensual.
6. Jason Miller
Jason “Mayhem” Miller’s nickname seems to
be more than a persona that he developed
for fighting. He has found success inside the
cage, and on television, but can’t seem to keep
things together. At first glance he appears to
be a good person with good intentions, but he
certainly has some demons that have translat-
ed into some public legal issues. Miller’s most
recent arrest was once again very public. He was
arrested outside of the “White House Bar.” The
incident was filmed and you can see Miller re-
sisting arrest while obviously intoxicated. Last
year he live tweeted a five hour stand off with
law enforcement, and he has been accused of
domestic abuse in the past as well.
