GLORY light heavyweight Zack Mwekassa on xenophobic violence in South Africa: 'It's worrying. I don't feel safe'

Zack Mwekassa spoke to MMAMania about the unrest in South Africa due to the xenophobic attacks that have left five dead in the past week. The No. 5 ranked GLORY light heavyweight has lived in Johannesburg for over 10 years, but may now be forced to leave for fear of his safety.

Xenophobic violence against foreign nationals in South Africa has left five people dead since last week, including a 14-year old boy and one man who was burned to death. Thousands have been fleeing the Rainbow Nation to seek refuge, fearing for their safety; some afraid for their lives.
