California -- A 25-year-old MMA fighter, described as up-and-coming, is facing charges after his former girlfriend reported that he kicked in her door, beat her and destroyed her cell phone so she couldn't call authorities, police said.
The San Lorenzo resident and UFC welterweight fighter, told investigators he went to his ex-girlfriend's house Saturday to see his dogs that were staying there, when she struck him first. He said he then acted in self-defense, according to mercurynews.com.
