Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Chris Leben on Wednesday turned himself in to Clackamas County officials in Oregon. Leben had a warrant out for his arrest stemming from a probation violation. Up to this point, Leben had been fighting solely in the U.S., so the violation was not an issue when he traveled. He was recently offered and accepted a bout against Michael Bisping for the UFC 85 event in London, however, and must apply for a visa to travel to the U.K. The probation violation will be considered in the visa process and could influence the decision whether or not to issue Leben a visa.

Let the Goblin go and get his teeth kicked in by Bisping.

Too bad cause I could see Bisping getting hammered.

BTW, I don't think the foto is of Leben.
