UFC strawweight champion Jessica Andrade and her wife Fernanda were the victims of a carjacking at gunpoint in Rio de Janeiro last week, and the diminutive Brazilian admits she feared the assailants were going to shoot her during the ordeal.
The newly-crowned champion spoke to ESPN about the incident and said her and her wife were driving at around 2 a.m. when they noticed a motorcycle approach them.
"The lights went red, and I slowed down. I saw a motorcycle close, and when I realized he was already by my side, I wasn't quite aware of what was going on," Andrade said.
