"Super Hero" joins professional MMA

Real-life crimefighter 'Phoenix Jones' returns to MMA

This guy is rather "famous" (or infamous?) for his exploits outside the cage. It will be intersting if he can do anything in competition. 5-0-1 as a low level pro so far.

Never heard of him.

Never heard of him.

I'm not sure if they based the movies/comics Kick-Ass and Super on him or vice-versa but there are a lot of simularities. He actually had a large gang of masked "heros" (at least 22 of them documented according to Wiki) called the Rain City Superheros who patrolled areas of Seattle. He did thwart a bunch of crimes, got stabbed and shot but the cops don't like him at all.

He'd better do well in MMA or he will come off looking really lame.

Crazy? Maybe. Stupid? Kinda. Pretty cool? Some of the time.

He's the one in the gold and black in the middle.
