#317 - Bloody Bodies & Bad Excuses - The Treacherousness of Joaquin "Fire" Balassa

This week, we check out a man who is known very little for his brief MMA career, but he is a "superstar" of crime. After washing out of the lowest levels of MMA, he takes a job at Home Depot, meeting some new friends, and trying to lead a normal life. He meets some new friends, while selling them a barbecue, which to a night of heavy drinking, and good times. The problem is, at the end of the night, both of his new friends are dead, and the entire scene is soaked in blood. But he denies it all... until he decides that it was self defense, with one of the most ridiculous stories/excuses of all time!


Fail in your athletic career, have 2 roommates in a small apartment, and make up a fantastical story of how you were actually the victim, and did what you had to do to survive with Joaquin "Fire" Balassa!!


Check us out, every Tuesday!

We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!
