quote]Unified cruiserweight champion O'Neil Bell has been arrested for allegedly assaulting a sparring partner while doing roadwork near his training camp in Big Bear, Calif. The sparmate, identified as 37-year-old Larry Slayton, claims Bell attacked him with a hatchet and threw large rocks at him. He told investigators that he was in fear for his life and sustained minor injuries from running through the vegetation as he fled through the woods. According to the San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department, Bell has been charged with assault with a deadly weapon based on both the alleged victim's claims and evidence at the scene. Bell is currently training in Big Bear for a March 17 title defense against Jean-Marc Mormeck in Paris.[/quote]

Nutter... he could have just beat the crap out of him in sparring! Muppet (if the alleged incident is true).

This is going to put a serious dent in his hectic one fight a year schedule.

Ha ha nice one! Bell is holding up the division, he should be stripped and fucked off out of the scene and let the others fight it out for goodness sake.
