UFC bantamweight Urijah Faber is widely regarded as one of the sport’s pioneers for establishing legitimacy to lighter weight classes. In addition, he is a best selling author, runs Team Alpha Male, and has various business interests in his hometown on Sacramento, Calif. Indeed, he is a celebrity there.

However, heavy wears the crown.

Last month a woman barged into Faber’s home, locked herself in the bathroom, and then, well, she relieved herself all over the place. Both numbers.

Then she went to sleep on the bathroom floor. Police arrived and removed her from the premises, leaving behind what can only be described as a mess. Alcohol was believed to be involved.

After defeating Thiago Alves, former UFC welterweight champion Georges St-Pierre once famously said “I drank so much that I forgot my whole name.”

Police reported that when questioned, the woman too could not remember her own name. But it was not the same.

Alcohol is believed to have played a role. Another theory is that she was a really, really big TJ Dillashaw fan.

And this being the age we live it, the whole thing got on the Net very nearly live.

These things happen in MMA, they really do.

12 conditions linked to chronic heavy drinking:
Anemia
Cancer
Cardiovascular disease
Cirrhosis
Dementia
Depression
Seizures
Gout
High blood pressure
Infectious disease
Nerve damage
Pancreatitis
