There are times when some people quite simply operate with their head in the sand, and here’s the story of one such occasion.A thief from Denver thought it was a good idea to steal the car of a UFC fighter.No, really. Jordan Williams, who is currently operating in UFC’s welterweight division - and doing rather well lately - almost had his car stolen but, well, the poor thief neither knew how to release the brake nor could he run away just in time.The result? Well, a punch and a half and “some knees”. Speaking about the incident, Williams described it hilariously:"At first I couldn't really believe it," he told ESPN. "And then I was like, 'Holy s---, there's someone really in my car.'
"So, I run up to the car, and I have a push-to-start car. So, if my keys aren't within five feet of the car it won't drive. As I started to run towards the car it started to slowly back up.
"And man, the look this guy gave me on his face through the window was like, 'Yeah, I got your car and this is happening.'"...
"I opened the door and, it's funny, the first thing I did was throw the stuff I bought on the passenger seat," Williams said.
"And then I proceeded to punch the guy. After the first punch he said, 'OK, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.' I was able to get some knees on him, as he was exiting out."
He even posted a video of the entire incident on his Instagram and with his commentary in the background, it seems all the more funny. The post read:
“So someone tried to steal my car today #thatfannypacktho
“If you are wondering why my car was still on its the same reason why he couldn't drive away, I have a push to start and my car won't go unless the keys are within 5 ft of it and I have them on me always. Needless to say my lesson was learned and I hope so was his.”
Indeed, Jordan. Indeed. He did learn his lesson.
