Former UFC light heavyweight contender Anthony Smith spoke about the arrest Cain Velasquezaccused of attempted murder of an alleged pedophile.
Earlier it became known that the 39-year-old former UFC heavyweight champion opened fire on a car in which there was a suspect in molesting his close relative. At the same time, the athlete missed and hit the stepfather of the alleged criminal.
“This situation should be spoken about with caution, because I do not want to be a person who advocates for people to take justice into their own hands. However, I can guarantee that if I were in his place, I would do the same. Such people should not be allowed to live in a normal society. Robbers, thieves and other criminals can be given a second chance, but not pedophiles.
What the hell world are we living in if this guy walks the streets and Kane doesn't... I'm not saying he should be free, but if I were him I would do the same and end up in jail. And I would agree with that,” Smith said on the Muckle Bisping podcast.
Velázquez faces a prison term of 20 years to life in prison if found guilty.
