MUGGER ANTHONY MIRANDA & THE MMA FIGHTER

BATTERED
BOY did this guy pick the wrong guy to mug. 
Walking up to the car, he probably thought the gun in his hand would be enough to get a good score. 
But what he hadn't banked on was his victim being a 6ft 2 and 250 pound mixed martial arts fighter who wasn't in the mood to be robbed.
After asking Justin, who did not wish his last name to be used, for a light, Miranda pulled the piece.
Justin told the Chicago Sun Times: "He asked me for my wallet, for my phone and my keys. I told him I don’t have a wallet, I only have cash. He cursed me — like ‘m-----f-----.’”

NO ESCAPE FOR RONALD TACKMAN THIS TIME

HOUDINI
A MASTER of disguise who used fake noses and a carved soap gun to pull off robberies and once infamously walked out of a court after convincing prison officers he was a defense attorney, could not escape justice this time.
Houdini like thief, Ronald Tackman, 57, used all sorts of ploys including dressing up as cowboy and a cigarette lighter that looked like a gun to carry out numerous heists in New York.
Then when he was due to stand trial in 2009, wearing a three piece suit and simply strolled out of the building after convincing prison officers he was a defense attorney.
He pulled black socks over his prison issue canvas shoes to help his charade.
