From a report in the Imperial Valley Press
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.
Authorities have not confirmed if the body is that of missing mixed martial arts fighter, Evan Tanner, who had fought in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Tanner, 37, has been missing since last weekend.
Tanner's friends from Oceanside, where Tanner resides, had been texting him without reply since Wednesday before they reported him missing on Friday.
On Sunday, a campsite was discovered in the Clapp Springs area of the Palo Verde mountains. Tanner's motorcycle was found at the campsite. A body was found today when a sheriffs deputy was flying around the general location of the campsite.
According to MMAJunkie.com, a friend of Tanner's has told them that she received confirmation today that the body was that of Tanners.

Deserts? Boats? Dude should have stuck to the octagon.
Seriously though, wish he would have just stuck to training and abandoned the existential crap.
I liked Tanner as a fighter, but there is a petition to induct him into the UFC Hall of Fame, and sorry if this makes me a badd person.... He should not be in it |

| What makes the people who put this petition up makes Evan a contender to go into the Hall of Fame? He died? Hardly a reason to go in. He won the middleweight title, Yeah great. Dont put him in. Did like hi as a fighter but he is NOT Hall of Fame material. |
