No. 4 ranked middleweight in the UFC, Brunson is the latest fighter to help Velasquez. Earlier this week, he announced that he was selling “Free Cain Velasquez” t-shirts through his website. Well, he raised $10,000 that will be given to Velasquez’s family for his legal fees.

On Friday, Brunson tweeted out a picture of him holding a $10,000 check and his child.

This week, Velasquez was arrested and charged with attempted murder after he chased down the man who allegedly molested a family member believed to be Velasquez’s daughter, possibly more than 100 times. However, Velasquez ended up shooting the alleged molester’s father in the arm.
