FIGHTLORE: Lee Murray’s Crimes and Misadventures
Спорт
The mean streets of 1980s London turned out a teenage troublemaker named Lee Murray. Despite a burgeoning criminal career, Murray took a detour into mixed martial arts. He fought at UFC 46, but Murray remains best known for a back-alley brawl with Tito Ortiz... and his involvement in a multi-million-dollar robbery. Friends, witnesses, and Murray's attorney recount unbelievable stories of an unapologetic athlete.

Lee Murray Stories in Moroccan jail are truly unbelievable. He fearlessly took down by knockout all Moroccans notorious criminals and drug dealers who tried to intimidate him, earning the respect of guards and inmates alike. His reputation demands respect and everyone knows not to cross the line with him. Despite his circumstances, he lives for his daily training routine in Moroccan jail.

Like Chael Sonnen said... Most combatants are one out of three things...an athlete, a fighter, or a competitor. If you are two out of three, then you have what it takes to be a super star. He seemed like a fighter and a competitor, but definitely a straight up fighter. God bless him.
That king kong Lee drawing on The Big Ben was hilarious
Mrs Millitich's China anecdote hinting towards Lee's criminal behavior was a GREAT use of foreshadowing
And the guy he nearly killed in the road rage attack had been in prison for road rage offences. He was actually reverse raming his car into Lee's car with his pregnant Mrs and daughter in the car screaming in terror. He's lucky Lee didn't stamp his head into mush.

He got the call to fight for the UFC after his win against Pele Landi-Jons in 2003. Pele had a win against then UFC welterweight champ Matt Hughes in 2001. Visa issues related to a criminal background. Nonetheless, a rare middleweight with power that would have been a force and a huge star in the UFC.

Always seemed to me, that British fighters don't have the wrestling training that Americans get, but at the same time they have much better boxing and striking training. The street fight between Tito Ortiz and Lee Murray kind of proves that.
I'm convinced Lee Murray is the reason Tito is a dumbass these days

Just goes to show that although you're a feared fighter in a controlled environment, you can still get it in the streets. Very few are besting Murray in a street fight. Very few.
