Chris Leben sentenced to 120 days

[Luke]

Retired UFC middleweight Chris Leben was today sentenced to 120 days in custody and three years’ probation after pleading guilty to multiple charges in connection with a June break-in at the San Diego apartment he once shared with his estranged wife.

Leben, 35, was sentenced today but was not taken into custody, San Diego Deputy District Attorney Matthew Dix today told MMAjunkie. Instead, he is to report to a San Diego county jail on Sept. 21 at 1:30 p.m. to serve 30 days of his sentence, after which he’ll serve 30 days of work furlough, meaning he is allowed to check out of the jail during the weekdays to work. If he stays out of trouble, he will receive a good behavior credit and will be transferred to probation, Dix said.

The fighter is also barred from contact with his estranged wife, Kaleena, for 10 years after the judge issued a new 10-year protective order, Dix said.

Damn. That sucks but I guess it could be
worse. As a Leben fan I really hope he eventually finds some peace and long-standing success in life.

I hope someone "spritzes" on his bunk

Only a fatherless bastard would do that.

I give it 6-8 months before he's fighting again

I feel sorry for Leben because he probably just can't cope with life outside of fighting. On the bright side, if he fights again maybe we get to see zombie-Leben one more time.

Too many drugs plus a lot of head shots don't make for a good life when the spotlight is no longer on you. He's probably severally depressed

The thing about Leben is that he's just one of those guys . . . one of those troubled dudes in the world who can't quite figure out how to just live a normal, peaceful life. I think he's only comfortable in the middle of chaos. When things are calm he can't handle it and CREATES chaos. I like the dude, personally. I think he's really probably a good dude at heart.

Also, that vid is great. I love how Martin taunts him and then like 10 seconds later is out cold.
