Former UFC heavyweight Jairzinho Rozenstruik was arrested January 19 in Pembroke Pines, Florida, on charges of felony false imprisonment and misdemeanor battery. The 37-year-old fighter, known as “Bigi Boy,” remains in custody at Broward County Main Jail with an immigration hold, according to arrest records and police reports.
Pembroke Pines Police Department responded to a domestic incident involving Rozenstruik and a woman he shares two children with, according to the arrest report. The incident began while the couple drove from their storage unit. The woman told police she ignored Rozenstruik during an argument, prompting him to slap her hand and cause her cellphone to fall.
