Even in retirement, Cain Velasquez’s mixed martial arts training entourage never left his side.
But last week, another image emerged – this time, of Velasquez standing shackled in a Santa Clara County courtroom, accused of trying to shoot a man charged with molesting Velasquez’s underage relative. The allegations cast renewed national attention on a fighter who notoriously shunned UFC’s bright spotlight.
“If someone did that to my family, in an act of rage, I probably would have done the same thing,” Gutierrez said. “If the system fails you, and they let someone out like that, it’s not fair.” Locally, Zach Parish, 37, a former South Bay MMA fighter who previously trained with Velasquez, bemoaned a larger tragedy.
