Police mugshot of Anthony Miranda, an alleged robber who's latest non-victim is an unidentified mixed martial arts fighter who competes in the UFC. An alleged robber in Chicago picked the wrong man to mess with. Anthony Miranda, 24, attempted a robbery and carjacking, police said, but his would-be patsy was a 33-year-old mixed martial artist who competes in the Ultimate Fighting Championships. The tables were turned rather quickly, according to the Chicago Tribune. According to police, the "victim" said Miranda approached his car near Kenneth Ave. and 55th St. and asked for a light for a cigarette. When the man, who did not want to be identified, said he didn’t have a light Miranda pulled a gun, demanded valuables and told the driver to get out of the car, police told the Tribune. What happened next is probably what you would expect when someone tries to rob an MMA fighter: a one-sided struggle. Instead of cash and valuables, Miranda came away with bruises all over his face, a bullet in his ankle after his gun discharged during the fight and a mugshot for the ages. The UFC fighter was able to hold Miranda on the ground until police arrived. Miranda got a trip to the hospital and is being held on $350,000 bail. According to the Tribune, Miranda is on parole and has served time for multiple burglaries. He was released from prison in March 2010. Poster Comment: Oh snap! I bet homey will think twice before he tries to rob someone else he doesn't know.

that is a great story. nice to see justice meted out once in a while. Did you ever see on youtube the story of one gun shop owner who's shot like 10 attempted robbers? He skates every time.

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one. None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free. deleted

None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free. yeah, it was a very entertaining interview & profile of the guy on one of those mainstream news shows. He was like, "i dont want to hurt anyone but if you pull a gun on me i will kill you!" LoL! Great stuff.

No, I haven't seen that video you mentioned but I think it's good. The more people "dissuade" these idiots from robbery, rape, etc. the better. And by any means necessary.

No, I think folks like the guy in the story needs to stick with trying to strong arm mma fighters, especially the really good ones. Liberty is not a means to a higher political end.

He should stick to something safer; like juggling running chain saws instead of trying to rob human cyclones at gun point. This idiot is lucky to be alive.

Perhaps he should have raped little boys, his bail may have only been $100K.
