Chris Leben Talks DUI Arrest, Upcoming Bout with Brian Stann

Filed under: UFC, FanHouse Exclusive

It's been a year full of headlines for UFC middleweight Chris Leben, both good and bad. After making UFC history by notching two victories in the span of two weeks this past summer, Leben seemed to be in the midst of a career renaissance, going 3-0 in the first half of 2010.

But in October Leben appeared to take a step backwards when he was arrested in Hawaii on suspicion of DUI. While he has a court date coming up in February of 2011, Leben said on Monday's edition of The MMA Hour that he doesn't expect to face any serious consequences as a result of the incident.

"George [W.] Bush got a DUI and he ended up being the president," Leben told MMA Fighting's Ariel Helwani. "I really feel as though nothing's really going to happen with it, honestly. I don't want to talk about it too much, and it's still in the works. But I don't think it's going to be a big deal."
