I don't even see the point of trying to start fights in places where people are just trying to have a good time, drink some alcohol, maybe swoop a sloot. I've never seen any of the local night life tough guys at the MMA gym. I wonder why?
I think plenty of pro MMA guys have gotten in trouble for street brawls.
Warmachine comes to mind:

In August, 2010, War Machine was sentenced to one year in the county jail for a felony assault conviction stemming from a fight at a Point Loma bar earlier in the year, as well as an additional fight at a Pacific Beach bar.[37][38] He was imprisoned in the San Diego's George Bailey Detention Facility and served time in administrative segregation.[39]
Since going to jail, Machine has maintained his Twitter account as well as a blog documenting his time in jail. In this blog, he has stated that he believes "The oppression of MEN is worse than oppression of Jews in Nazi germany, worse than the slavery of Blacks in early America... I'm not exaggerating either."[40] Machine has also described how he was sent into administrative segregation due to jail policy violations but decided to voluntarily remain there until the end of his sentence.[41] Koppenhaver was released from incarceration on July 15, 2011.[42]
On February 1, 2012, it was announced via War Machine's Twitter that he will be serving another year of jail time, due to preceding events. He was released on October 29, 2012.

What’s up guys!? I’m gonna do a weekly blog for this year while I’m locked up. Just want to keep y’all posted and give you some insight on what it’s like here for me. When I first got here I was told I was gonna be kept in segregation to pretect myself since I’m a "celebrity." I told them NO WAY! 23 hours a day lockdown? FUCK THAT! So they stuck me in the "mainline." They classified me a 5 on a scale 1-6 so I’m with the big dogs. Everyone here has been to prison. Few guys in my unit are murderers waiting to be shipped out to prison for life. Funny, kinda odd, but they are the most friendly of the bunch… Most intelligent too. Hardest thing about this place is finding people you can have a decent conversation with.
So when you first get here you learn the rules, jail politics. You got the Whites, the Mexicans, and the Blacks + others. Whites and Mex share tables for recreation but you only eat show at your designated race’s table. You never sit at the Blacks table and vice-versa, but you can talk to them here in County Jail. If a Mex or White fights a Black, all the Mex and Whites are required to jump in. One on one fights are only allowed against your own race and take place in an empty cell. I think it’s dumb. I’m not trying to fight anyone and can care less abotu who fights who. I hope no big rumbles happen… I can’t afford more trouble. Buttt if you don’t help, you get jumped afterwards. Maybe I’ll just throw body shots and leg kicks so I don’t hurt anyone… Anyway so far all is well.
I’m bored a lot, just been reading and working out to stay busy. All the guys here are cool to me, I get a lot of questions about fighting. Seems everyone wants to learn some "moves." I wish we could train here, would make it way more fun… lol. So yeah, anyway I don’t see anyone fucking with ME… Only way BS goes down is if I get drug into someone elses lame drama. Well that is that! Week 1 in a nut shell. Look forward to keeping you guys updated. Can’t wait to get out and fight for all my fans again! Can’t wait to open my gym in Austin! Thanks for standing by me. If you go to sdsheriff.net you can e-mail me. Booking # 10754342 Jon Koppenhaver.

Here is Roger Huerta "white knighting" as guys call it on here:
The War Machines and Diaz Brothers are the exceptions. You can see the Diaz bros getting into scraps on the street, yet I could never imagine someone like Fedor Emelianenko or Junior Dos Santos starting shit on the street for no reason. Defending yourself is one thing, being the aggressor is another. All the guys i've seen walk into the gym with a bad attitude thinking he's He Man never last more than one session.
