UFC fighter responds brilliantly to threats from ISIS terrorists

While the world frets about the threat of ISIS, there's one man who clearly doesn't give a f**k.

That man is UFC middleweight Tim Kennedy. The American fighter, who has beaten the likes of Robbie Lawler, already hit the headlines this week after laying into monstrous former opponent Yoel Romero who failed a drugs test. But now Kennedy, who hasn't fought since the loss to Romero 18 months ago, has been threatened by global terror group ISIS. Kennedy works as a sergeant first class with the Texas National Guard, having previously served in 7th Special Forces Group. He is well used to getting online abuse from what he calls 'military trolls' but one threat alerted the Federal Bureau of Investigation. in an Army Times interview, Kennedy explained:

"The F.B.I said, 'Are you aware of this stuff?' I said, 'Yes.' They said, 'We think this is somewhat credible'. "Then I said, 'I'm kind of desensitised to this stuff, so maybe you should tell me what my level of alarm should be'."

"What’s the definition of terrorism?" Kennedy proposed. "It’s 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?" What a bloody legend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9g3Ib-I0O78 Main image via @TimKennedyMMA
