Lee Murray is one of the greatest "what-ifs" in MMA history.
The former UFC middleweight, known most notably for going the distance with Anderson Silva in Cage Rage and for allegedly beating up Tito Ortiz in a street fight, held a 8-2-1 record before having his MMA career tragically cut short by a stabbing outside a London nightclub in 2005.
But wait ... there's more.
Murray now finds himself in the midst of a 25-year prison sentence for designing one of the largest bank robberies in world history.
Enthralled by this tragic tale, celebrated documentary filmmaker Pat Kondelis knew he needed to find a way to bring this story to the world. On today's episode of "Smack Talk with Sandhu," Kondelis tells Sandhu how he came across the Lee Murray story, why he wanted to tell it, and how he managed to track down the voice of one of the most coveted interviews in the entire combat sports world for his new documentary "Catching Lightning," which is now available exclusively on Showtime.
