Former Middleweight Champion of the UFC Evan Tanner has been found dead in the desert.

A body was discovered in the Palo Verde mountain area on Monday, said Lt. George Moreno from Imperial County Sheriff's Department.

The Palo Verde mountain area is 60 miles northeast of Brawley.

Tanner, 37, has been missing since last weekend when his friends had not heard from him after countless phone calls and text messages. Evan recently wrote on his blog "I plan on going so deep into the desert, that any failure of my equipment, could cost me my life," wrote Tanner on the adventure in August. "I've been doing a great deal of research and study. I want to know all I can about where I'm going, and I want to make sure I have the best equipment."
P.I.P

He was definitely an electic dude but was super nice when I met him earlier this year. Took time for photos with all his fans at UFC ILL-WILL.

RIP

Tanner blogged last month he was going to the desert because of his friends talking about "treasure hunting and lost gold, and my own insatiable appetite for adventure and exploration." Tanner continued, "I plan on going so deep into the desert, that any failure of my equipment could cost me my life."


Epic self-fulfilling prophecy of catastrophic proportions.

He may yet still recover though...

I don't know, Death makes for a tough recovery process.

Seriously though.. what "equipment" do you require in the desert other than food, plenty of water and a good sun hat?
