Four gang-bangers screwed up when they decided to break into this MMA's fighters casa in Las Cruces. The result was one thug dead, one in the hospital, and two running away after a beatdown. I sure hope the guy isn't charged with anything since he was defending his home and family from known lowlifes.

When you are being assaulted you cannot afford to care about how much damage you do to the assailant. You only care about stopping the attack. Remember this is not a contest and there are no rules.

"Torrez may face charges in the death..." Excuse me? You have four scumbags break and enter into your home, and you might face charges? Is there possibly more to this story?
