PFL Heavyweight Josh Copeland Arrested for Allegedly Punching Wife in Face

Professional Fighters League heavyweight Josh Copeland was arrested for allegedly punching his wife in the face on Feb. 2, according to TMZ Sports.

Adams County (Colo.) law enforcement arrived at the couple’s home to find Copeland’s wife with “an obvious bruise on her left eye, a cut and was bleeding. There was blood down the front of her face and neck,” per the police report.

Copeland’s wife told police that the couple had an argument that began with both of them pushing each other and her slapping her husband in the face. Eventually, Copeland allegedly punched his wife, threw her on the bed and took her phone so she wouldn’t be able to call for help.
