Video: Arsonist targets former UFC champ Anthony Pettis, sets fire to three of his cars in driveway

Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) and World Extreme Cagefighting (WEC) Lightweight champion, Anthony Pettis, is known for being an explosive mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter, but what happened to "Showtime" recently is taking that to a whole new level.

The Roufusport-trained fighter, who is booked to face Max Holloway at UFC 206 six weeks from now, is currently trying to understand who torched his three cars, which were parked in his driveway in Milwaukee, Wisc., in the middle of the night and then fled the scene.

Milwaukee police believe an unknown suspect used an accelerant to ignite two of the vehicles which forced flames to spread to a third vehicle sitting in Pettis' driveway.
