Ronda Rousey’s fiancé Travis Browne doesn't just get violent in the octagon: Breaking Celebrity News has learned that the MMA star was previously convicted of a felony after punching a man in the face so hard that he broke his jaw in three places!

Browne, 34, was found guilty of felony assault stemming from the fight he had with a man during a pick-up basketball game at Stagecoach Park in Carlsbad, California on March 17, 2002.

According to documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, after a “verbal altercation,” between Browne and Christopher Barnard, “Defendant then approached Barnard and pushed him to the ground while exclaiming ‘Shut up and just play ball!’"

“Other players on the basketball court separated" the two of them, court documents state, "after Barnard had been pushed to the ground."

But Browne "pushed through those attempting to prevent a physical fight and punched Barnard in the face with a closed fist," before he "then walked away from the scene.”

Browne was just 19 when he assaulted the man, in 2002, and according to the documents Barnard suffered extensive injuries.

“Barnard was hospitalized for three days following the attack," the documents state. "The injuries he suffered were severe: his jaw was broken in three places, surgery was required to treat the fractures, and his jaw was wired shut for four weeks. According to probation reports, the medical expenses required to address Barnard's injuries exceeded $18,000, most of which was covered by the State Victim Compensation program.”

The violent charges, investigated by the police for weeks before they were able to identify Browne and arrest him, we filed as “assault by means likely to produce great bodily injury, with the allegation of personally inflicting great bodily injury,” the documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News stated.

Rousey’s fiance, now #10 in the official UFC Heavyweight rankings, pleaded guilty to the felony in 2003 and was sentenced to three years of felony probation. He also was ordered to complete community service.

In 2015, Browne petitioned the court to lower the conviction from a felony to a misdemeanor.

Prosecutors fought back, arguing that thecrime was especially brutal.

“This offense warrants nothing less than a felony conviction," they argued in documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News.

"Because of Defendant's lack of self-control, Barnard was brutally attacked over a senseless basketball game," the documents state. "Browne was 6'7" tall, weighed about 220 pounds, and was of a muscular and athletic build. He not only shoved Bernard to the ground, but he pushed through the other players who were attempting to intervene and prevent a physical fight. As Bernard picked himself up off the floor, Browne push through the other members of the basketball court and delivered a violent blow that shattered Bernard’s jaw in three separate places. Bernard could not to speak, eat or drink normally for four agonizing weeks."
