A slew of past and present MMA stars showered Cain Velasquez with support on social media after the former UFC champion was sentenced to five years in prison.
On Monday, Velasquez was sentenced for his involvement in a February 2022 shooting that saw the ex-MMA fighter engage in a high-speed chase in which he fired several rounds from a handgun at a vehicle carrying Harry Goularte, the man accused of sexually assaulting Velasquez’s then-four-year-old son at a daycare his mother, Patricia Goularte, owned and operated.
Velasquez was ultimately sentenced to five years with time served for a series of charges, including attempted murder.
