Toronto Sun is reporting that [former] Team Tompkins fighter, Kasheem “The Dream” Peterson has been charged in London, Ontario, Canada with sexual assault. The article lists the charges below:

Police charged 28-year-old mixed martial arts fighter Kasheem Peterson with sexual assault, forcible confinement and choking someone with the intent of committing sexual assault.

Peterson has been in London, Ontario with “The Coach” Shawn Tompkins and UFC Featherweight title-contender, Mark Hominick as a training partner, helping prepare Hominick for his April 30th UFC 130 fight against Featherweight Champion, Jose Aldo. We at Fix would practice an innocent until proven guilty stance here, but considering even his very own coach, Tompkins who in the past, housed Peterson in his home while training the MMA fighter had this to say on his Facebook:

Absolute horrible news… Please do not connect what Kasheem Peterson has done with us.. He is obviously a problem man that is out of control.. This incident had absolutely nothing to do with our Team, our hearts go out to the family.. I am disgusted..

… We’re gonna go ahead and say we hope this jerk goes to prison and his bar of soap drops frequently. We at Fix respect Tompkins for speaking out against his own fighter and expressing his sincere beliefs in the matter.

Hey Strikeforce! What About Corissa Furr?!?!?

Hey, we’re all excited about the Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Daley card this Saturday night. We are thankful for the two title-fights including headliners, Nick Diaz vs. Paul Daley for the Welterweight division and Gilbert Melendez vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri for the Lightweight division. And man, no matter how much of a last resort replacement an underdog […]

Hey, we’re all excited about the Strikeforce: Diaz vs. Daley card this Saturday night. We are thankful for the two title-fights including headliners, Nick Diaz vs. Paul Daley for the Welterweight division and Gilbert Melendez vs. Tatsuya Kawajiri for the Lightweight division. And man, no matter how much of a last resort replacement an underdog he is, we love seeing Keith Jardine on the card against Gegard Mousasi.

But wait! What about those Rockstar Ring Girls? I don’t even know any of their names except that one, Kelli Hutcherson who’s super skinny yet blonde with a decent sized rack so she’s totally hot, but what happened to Corissa Furr? Do we get to see her again? Remember we voted her in as the winner of that Strikeforce: Feijao vs. Henderson successful popular contest everyone knew about, cared, and paid attention to intense Facebook search that yielded a whole 20 (or less) entries and Furr won with a whopping 904 votes? Please dear Strikeforce gods, give her a contract.

Thiago Silva Fined $33,750 with 1 Year Suspension

MMAJunkie reported today that Thiago Silva was fined $33,750 with a 1 year suspension, for his use of steroids and subsequently, giving NSAC a synthetic urine sample during his UFC 125 pre-fight drug testing. The monetary penalty is 25 percent of Silva’s fight purse (having received $13, 750 to fight) and $20,000 from his $55,000 win bonus. Silva apologized and made the following statement transcibed by MMAJunkie.com:

“I just want to apologize for what I did. I did what I did because my back was very, very bad a couple months (before the fight). I had not fought for one year. I was completely broke. I have a family. People depend on my money. I was desperate to do something.

I know what I did is wrong. Like I said, I’m so sorry. I had my reasons. People depend on my money, and I had to give them support.”

Yes, we at Fix know what Silva did kinda sucked, especially for Brandon Vera. It’s pretty f’ed up that he willingly turned his back on the commisioner and dumped fake urine in his piss cup. But don’t we speak for everyone, when we say, we still hate Chael Sonnen way more? I mean, that guy got a $2,500 fine and a six month vacation. And he likely isn’t doing an ounce of time for his mortgage fraud. But hopefully the NSAC gods will keep Sonnen from fighting in Las Vegas at least for a good period until he shapes up (*cough, will never happen). We feel way more for Silva here, even though he bitch-slapped Vera during the fight. So we all understand if Vera’s having a good chuckle right now, back in the UFC.
