Scott Coker Gets Drunk, Joins Russian Army

Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker's life seems to have taken a turn for the bizarre. Before the UFC purchase of his organization, Coker was sitting pretty atop the MMA world. Strikeforce was doing well as the second biggest MMA promotion behind the UFC and the future never looked brighter. Even after the sale to Dana White and the Fertitta brothers, Coker's life seemed perfect.

However all that has changed. Scott Coker is now a very different man. He's broken and battered, and sadly a raging alcoholic. The low point in his life was reached when he drunkenly joined the Russian army.

We spoke to Coker yesterday in an attempt to see exactly why things had turned out so badly for him.

"Things aren't bad", he told us, his voice slurred. "Things are fucking great!"

Then he started crying, and after several minutes of wretched sobbing, he confessed.

"Oh hell," he cried. "My life is a disaster now!" He paused to gather his wits. "You know," he continued. "After I sold out to Zuffa, I was on top of the world. Dana White showed me a lot of respect during the negotiations, and then, once we closed, I became his right hand man. The joke around the UFC was that I was Dana White's Mini-Me, and I loved that role. It was awesome. But soon things started changing. There was less and less for me to do. I became marginalized. They stopped inviting me to the meetings and Dana even stopped taking my calls."

LMAO!
