I had to pass this story along in case you guys haven't seen it:
Grappling guru Lloyd Irvin, who is famous in the fighting world for his incredible recovery from a horrifying spinal injury, was held up at gunpoint Saturday morning, along with his family and UFC contender Brandon Vera. Needless to say, the outcome could have been tragic. Lloyd, no stranger to adversity, had other plans for his attackers. BloodyElbow has the story:
While one gunman held Irvin's family hostage, another gunman directed Irvin to the the master bedroom. According to Irvin, he led the gunman toward his bedroom. Once in the bedroom, Irvin said he noticed the other gunman was far enough away down the hall to make a move to disarm the attacker in his bedroom. Irvin, an expert in Sambo defensive gun and knife techniques, was able to get ahold of the gun in the attacker's hands, first separating the clip from the gun and then removing the gun from the attacker's hands.
I would have liked to hear about these piece of trash criminals suffering some broken bones at the hands of Irvin and Vera, but for now, let's give thanks that the good guys won, and that Lloyd's family is safe and sound.
Also, let's hope that this past weekend's events don't mess with Brandon's head given his key match with Keith Jardine this weekend at UFC 89.

This is complete bullsh*t. There is not a single local or regional newspaper that has covered this so-called incident. The local and state police have zero reports of this incident, either. Which means that "Master" Lloyd did not care to report this to the police, even though he now has one of the "robber's" guns as evidence to trace. The reason he did not report it, is because it did not happen at all, or, it was a staged event by two of Lloyd's accomplices-- which may be a crime in and of itself.
Lloyd doesn't want to go to jail for filing a false report, so, there will never be a police record of this fake marketing scheme.
FAKE

Wow, haven't heard this one. Crimes, even murders, aren't always reported in newspapers. How can we check whether or not police reports were filed?
