Cain Velasquez, released in November 2022 on a $1 million bail seemingly funded by UFC CEO Dana White, faced serious legal issues after attempting to avenge his son's alleged molestation. Despite spending eight months in jail, he received the burden of support from notable MMA personalities, including White, who wrote letters for his character. In March 2023, Velasquez was sentenced to five years for attempted murder and other charges stemming from a February 2022 incident. He is now eligible for parole by March 2026, making it a noteworthy case in MMA history.
I have known Mr. Velasquez for many years, and he has never been involved in any criminal activity or behavior of any kind.
Velasquez was sentenced to five years in prison for attempted murder and related charges, but is eligible for parole as early as March 2026.
