The Nightmare

The Sanchez story is sadly common for successful pro athletes. From MMA Weekly:

The person, whose name Sanchez did not mention, embezzled over $170,000 of the money he earned in the UFC Octagon. This was reality giving Sanchez a harsh slap in the face.

"I let some bad influences get into my life and it was a downward spiral. It was like a tornado sucking everything in," he recalled. "I let a person that I thought was a friend, a real close friend, someone that would help me with finances, I had him helping me out with stuff. Turned out I got embezzled for over $170,000. He conned me. I got conned so bad. And in the same time when I got conned, I was just wasting the money that I had earned."

The entire article probably deserves it's own thread with a better title.
