Steve Cofield has a pretty priceless interview with WEC lightweight Marcus Hicks discussing his days as a security guard for Wal Mart.

Some nuggets:

Hicks caught one lucky fella stealing an air compressor. When he confronted the thief in the parking lot, he punched Hicks and ran off. "The Ironhead Heyward" of security guards ran down the slimeball and as he put it, "took his back and put an RNC (rear-naked choke) on him."

That wasn't the only case of someone getting violent with Hicks. His toughest scrap at Walmart came against a 300-pounder, even better it was a woman:

"Once she stepped outside, I tried to talk to her and then I called for backup. She started beating up my partner. Boy, she was killing (my partner). I'm not gonna punch a lady, my mama taught me better. So I put her in an RNC."

Hicks will be facing former WEC lightweight champ Rob McCullough on Sunday at WEC 39.

You fart anywhere near him, and he will put you in a RNC.

Always say hello to the greeter.

I will play my game beneath the spin light.

Very strange...

Nowadays, it seems like we always hear of some Loss Prevention person getting fired because they “hit” a shoplifter who swung at the LP officer first.

I used to work at Wal-mart in college as a Tire Technician, and they went through 12 Loss Prevention officers due to the LP officers actually detaining people excessively. Excessively was… they left some bruises on the shoplifter’s arm when they tried to pry themselves from the LP officer. Stupid shit like that.

Good to know Marcus Hicks is owning fools in the parking lot, regardless.

Yeah...

I worked for a few months at the photo lab at a Target when I was wasting time in college and it was in the front of the store. Used to get a kick out of watching the LP guys because they were told they couldn’t be “excessive” in their duties. So most of the time people got away as they stood there yelling at them to come back…
