Remember that one guy from that season of TUF who sneaked out of the house to meet up with a lifeguard he met earlier in the series? Then he got kicked-off the show for it? As it turns out, he is a rapist. So yeah, hope that lifeguard is ok. Jeremy Jackson, 28, fourth season contestant on SpikeTV's The Ultimate Fighter, plead guilty to raping and threatening an Oxnard, California woman in 2008. Jackson faced a maximum sentence of 60-years-to-life if he had gone to trial. Jackson fought twice in the UFC and once in the WEC and had a career record of 10-5. He is 0-1 when fighting the law. http://www.vcstar.com/news/2011/feb/14/145ultimate-fighter-sentenced-to-25-years-to-for/
Believe it or not Jackson isn't the most vile person to have fought in the Octagon. Remember Joe Son? The guy that got his nuts punched in by Keith Hackney at UFC 4 way back in 1994? Maybe you don't. It was a long-ass time ago. I wrote about him here a couple of years ago. Long story short he was a trainer and spiritual adviser for Kimo Leopoldo in addition to being an absolute lunatic. He fought once in the UFC. He dragged an enormous wooden cross out to the ring, symbolic of Jesus' carrying of the crossbeam. It exhausted him and he had nothing left for the fight. His opponent Keith Hackney took advantage of the old UFC's lack of rules and punched him in the nuts until he quit. Actually you might remember him better as Random Task from Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. He is also a rapist. He was recently picked up for an incident that allegedly happened in 1990. He's being charged with two counts of rape, two counts of anal rape, two counts of anal gang rape, seven counts of forced oral, and one count of forced penetration with an object (allegedly a gun). He's awaiting trial and faces up to 275 years in prison all told. Holy shit. All those punches to the yambag were well-deserved.
