The fighter in question is former heavyweight contender Lavar Johnson, who fought in the UFC, WEC, Strikeforce and Bellator. He hit his stride in 2012 in the UFC after scoring two colossal knockout wins, but was cut from the UFC following a loss and a drug test failure.
As for what he did, Johnson (38) was convicted of brutally beating his girlfriend, smashing her against a wall and throwing her to the floor before repeatedly striking her. Johnson also went to jail for 30 days in 2007 for another assault on his significant other at the time.
Hopefully Johnson can learn his lesson and right his ways…but it’s unlikely.
