He was found to be medically unfit to go to prison and is in the hospital.
Essentially he was driving on the wrong side of the road and on sidewalks while "pedestrians fled in terror" smashing into vehicles and such. There was a 5 minute police chase which ended when his car's tire blew and eventually came to a stop. He was arrested at gunpoint.

Well, I call that an Aggravated DUI with Reckless Driving and ten other charges thrown in. He is not going to just stay in the hospital for that one.

Lol, I'd self destruct too if I lost the belt to someone as unskilled (though exciting and durable!) as Forrest Griffon.

I'm having a flashback to the last episode of TUF.
And frankly, I was impressed with Griffon in the fight. I'm not sure if he deserved the win - it was a close fight, I couldn't call it - but he impressed me in many places.

I especially like how Forrest essentially told the fans to go screw themselves at the end. He's the ultimate victorious underdog fighter, and yet he always gets booed. He even looks like your regular, everyday, average normal guy... One more win, and I think people will begin to take him seriously; he needs a decisive victory though.
As for Rampage, it was the first title he had won in the history of his long career. Plus, he's also not known to be the most mentally stable person in the world; this isn't his first breakdown. I am just wondering what this will do for his UFC career, Dana White fired Babalu for holding a choke on for 2 seconds too long (despite the fact that BJ Penn did the exact same thing the previous UFC show).
