Man Gets Ass Beat When He Tries To Rob MMA Fighter

December 5, 2011 at 6:21 pm by Morbid

Chicago IL – A man is in jail today nursing some facial injuries and a gunshot wound to the ankle after he tried to mug the wrong person on Friday.

Police say 24-year-old Anthony Miranda approached a man sitting in a parked car and asked for a lighter. When the man sitting in the car told Miranda he didn’t have one, Miranda pulled out a handgun and demanded money.

The victim obliged, giving Miranda an undisclosed sum of dough. But Miranda bit off more than he could chew when he instructed the man to get out of his car. Tuns out the person he picked to rob was a MMA fighter and when got out of the car, he took control of Miranda’s gun.

As the pair struggled for the gun, it accidentally fired and Miranda was outfitted with a bullet to the ankle. The victim then held Miranda to the ground until police arrived.

Miranda was taken to the hospital to be treated for his injuries before being taken to jail on charges of armed robbery and aggravated discharge of a firearm. He’s no stranger to the legal process, having prior convictions that include residential burglary.

This is the second story this year involving an MMA fighter kicking a would-be thief’s ass. The first was back in January when 25-year-old Tyler Fryman, an MMA cage fighter, choked out a man trying to steal his girlfriend’s car.

Mommies, Daddies, Parents of all kinds, please take your kids to wrestling clubs or karate classes! A great way to subdue thieves and other criminals is to stick up for yourself! Damn this MMA kid makes me proud, and very glad my kids have had lots of practice on the mat!

All you would have to do is give them your Barry White voice (and yes folks I have heard it, used to make my son giggle) and they would calm down in moments lol

Actually, it’s the third similar story I’m aware of. In November, two MMA fighers foiled the would-be robbery of an L.A. motel.

Who needs retarded “superheros” like Seattle has when you’ve got MMA fighters. Now, if only they all looked like Renato Sobral.

bahaha, I love this. His face is beyond priceless. He looks like he got curb stomped by an octopus.

I would love to see the parking lots security footage (if there is any) to see him getting beat down.

Not only does he shoot himself in the foot figuratively, he does it literally. I never would’ve seen that coming.

Any day a would be thief gets charged for being shot with his own gun is a good day!

Too bad the gun didn’t “accidentally” shoot the fucker in the head.

Never heard T-bagging called “finding his socks before”.

(LOL),j/k – that was mean of me – sorry.

I so agree.

“I never would’ve seen that coming.”

Apparently he didn’t either.

”Renato Sobral”

I have no clue who this is – and I’m not going to Google the name since it doesn’t sound like it belongs to a Hot chick.

Being a thief takes dedication, a large amount of time, a desired to not feel proud of accomplishments, a desired to not have bragging rights to how much you earn, an overwhelming feeling of lazyness and in this case a rather pussy individual.

Bitch!

My husband sings nursery rhymes & kids songs a la Elvis.

My daughter usually says: “Go’ ‘way Elvis! Go’way, go’way, go’way!” It’s hilarious & annoying as hell at the same time.

Nothing like a good ass-kicking and beatdown to cure a criminal. He just might think twice before doing this shit again.

You’re not going to Google it because you’re afraid of the competition.

Shouldn’t you be able to just look at a MMA fighter and realize he’s not someone you should mess with?
At one point I read that two guys once tried to mug Chuck Norris. They later said they knew who he was, just thought the TV stuff wasn’t real. They got taken to the ER before heading to jail.

No! No. He is going to have to explain all this to his cell mates. I hope his mama sends him a lot of Vaseline.

Love it! If anyone broke into my house they’d be leaving on a stretcher. All three of my sons work out and one is a MMA fighter. I feel safe.
