An Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) bantamweight fighter was just charged with attempted murder after stabbing his two sisters in US, Florida.

Irwin “The Beast” Rivera, who is currently making waves in the UFC, reportedly stabbed his two sisters after the latter visited him.

As his sisters were sleeping in a vacant room in his apartment, Irving allegedly stabbed his other sister on her back, head, and arms, reason why she rushed out of the house and went to the road to scream for help.

His neighbors saw his 22-year-old sister in the road covered with blood and they immediately called 911 for help.

Meanwhile, the other sister was put in critical condition after receiving multiple stabs that caused her two lungs to collapse.

According to the investigators from the Boynton Beach Police Department, the women woke up to Rivera’s stabbing and it was all because a “higher power” told him to do it because it was “his purpose.”

 

“UFC is aware of the recent incident involving Irwin Rivera and subsequently received information from his management that he has been exhibiting behavior consistent with mental health issues,” wrote the UFC in a statement.
