Interviewer: You made attacks to Brazil. Do you believe somebody can take a gun and shot you?
“[Silence] I… I wouldn’t have thought on shots, but I think it is possible. I was more concerned with the possibility of lynching, maybe knife attack. But yeah I think it’s possible.”
“But because I am a gangster, I don’t live with fear. I do whatever I want, wherever I want… I would like to go to the beach.”
‘The American Gangster’ from Oregon revealed he demanded extra security to take part in this show and said great measures have been taken by UFC president Dana White. “He suggested very sophisticated measures, more than I could have suggested.”
Even normal people (well people with money, which Chael does) fly from building to building in a helicopter to prevent from being kidnapped and molested by gangsters. Real gangsters. With real guns.
I can't see this as anything but daring someone to do something. Daring dangerous people with nothing to lose is never a good idea. The UFC is taking a huge risk by doing this and Chael is playing with his life.
You know chaels been to Brazil since talking all the mad shit and even signed the contract to fight anderson in a 100,000 seated soccer stadium. He is not a pussy by any stretch of the imagination
