Yep, about his supposed role in the biggest bank heist ever. They showed clips from his UFC days during the program advertisement.

What is it with ESPN and MMA? First they showcase Kimbo, now Murray? I guess the only way you can be acknowledged as an MMA fighter on ESPN is to break the law, make porn, or be just an all out ass in public.
I don’t think Kevin Ferguson is guilty of any of those allegations you set out is he?
Sweet! I’ll finally find out what happened to Lee Murray. Is he on a Moroccan beach living it up or a prison with a moustached girlfriend.
I’m pretty sure I’ve seen the Kimbo in a few gonzos.
Time Inc. just said that they were looking into making a movie about him based on a story in SI.

Murray is also the subject of Sports Illustrated’s first feature film, called “Breaking the Bank.”
Probably because a bunch of stoners cruising around california in a pink cadillac pushing over old ladies in crosswalks and shouting “209 bitches” doesn’t make for engrossing television.
Re: Gaijin
Kimbo was “security” on camera in some internet porn. He was basically an actor that didn’t perform sexually. And I think it would be pretty easy to venture to guess some of his fights were illegal.
I hope the story includes the funniest part about this whole mess…
The reason Murray was caught in Morocco is because he was living with only guys and his neighbors suspected that homosexuality was afoot. Hahaha, what an embarassing way to get caught for bank robbery.
Murray didnt get charged for bank robbery did he and from what I understand his a free man right now with the chance of him being extradited very very slim.
Last I heard, Murray is moving up to heavy weight to fight Kimbo on the next Elite XC.
