American UFC featherweight fighter Cody Stamann, who will fight Brazilian Luan Lacerda at UFC 283 in Brazil, said he fears the reaction of local fans if he wins.
In a hostile situation, I will act like they do to me. People behave ruthlessly, they pour beer on us, they throw all kinds of shit and they are disgusting. I'm sure I'll finish Lacerda off, and I'm thinking of hiring private security, because I know the fans will be ruthless to me. This trip to Brazil is going to be unforgettable.
