Top ranked UFC middleweight Tim Kennedy has always been an outspoken fighter. From how Yoel Romero’s stool-gate<\/a> controversy was handled, to the UFC’s Reebok deal<\/a>, and now even with ISIS, Kennedy never shy’s away from giving his honest thoughts.<\/p>\n

Apparently Kennedy, a US Special Forces member, has received several threats from notorious terrorist group ISIS, however he doesn’t seem too phased by the situation.<\/p>\n

Kennedy spoke to the Army Times<\/a> to discuss the situation:<\/p>\n

\u201cApparently a couple of them were legitimate in trying to, from what the FBI said, plan stuff.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey said, \u2018Are you aware of this stuff?\u2019 I said, \u2018Yes.\u2019 They said, \u2018We think this is somewhat credible.\u2019 Then I said, \u2018I\u2019m kind of desensitized to this stuff, so maybe you should tell me what my level of alarm should be.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat\u2019s the definition of terrorism? It\u2019s to achieve an objective through the use of force and fear. These are just nasty, evil, disgusting human beings who disrespect human life. I teach people how to live with threats like this. Who would I be to be cowering to a bunch of gutless cowards acting like a bunch of tough guys online?\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In addition, Kennedy took to his Facebook fan page<\/a> to update fans on the situation.<\/p>\n

Just spoke with the FBI regarding some recent credible threats towards me by \u202a#\u200eISIS\u202c They were not overly thrilled with my response… “Let those cowards come”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
