TUF alumni Rob Emerson Arrested
I'm not sure if anyone has read or heard this yet but our "beloved" Robert Emerson was once apart of this rich kid street gang called "Lords of South County". They would go around terrorizing unsuspecting white people at schools and in the streets. In June 2000, they were caught on tape at a gas station, beating 2 innocent victims, for no reason. As of september, Emerson has receive 9 months in jail for his implication in the matter.
Click here for news footage on the incident, entitled Video of the day - Rob Emerson Bloody Elbow :: The Official Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Blog of the SB Nation
I'm sure the UFC have made a backround check on the kid but I guess if you have money, people to tend to forget about stuff like this ever happening...  |

I don’t like the attitude of some of the fans who always like to complain. When they say if you had a quick fight that they wished it was longer and if you have a long fight they say you should have beaten this guy quicker. Some people you just can’t please. If it is so easy, they can put on a glove and do it themselves. I’ll watch them fight.

So the father blames the community! That makes me want to puke. He obviously doesn't get it.
These guys are nothing but cowards who prey on the weak. I hope they get what they deserve.

Yes this was WAY before TUF.
Emmerson has always been a bully in OC. He lives and hangs around with a bunch of my friends around here, and hes always starting fights with random people.
That whole group, LORDZ OF SOUTH COUNTY, are your typical "bullies".
It was definately weird seeing him on TUF.

These guys are nothing but cowards. I wish one of the guys in the truck had a gun so he could have blown them all away.

Emerson the leader of these guys? Wow, way to go UFC. The only true justice for Emerson would be his banning from the UFC. Really though, ,1% of the fans would support a leader of thugs who guys beating the crap out of people at random. Interesting. If this guy fights again in the UFC, my respect for them will be gone.

This is the type of thing that pisses me off. Bunch of punk wanna-be tough guy rich kids beating up people for no reason.
I hope they run into some real gang members in jail who teach them a lesson. |

Bring him back so Maynard can beat his ass, then throw him out.

Don't be so hard on Emerson.
I bet he cried at Titanic too.
Surprising news though. He didn't come across as a moron on TUF.

I'm sure the UFC did a background check, but what was there to check? He didn't have a record at the time and he wasn't indicted for anything. But yeah, he's probably pretty much banned from the UFC now. No street thugs, no easy bad pr.

He sure sounds like a class act. I take it you were rooting against him. |
