LAS VEGAS – You might want to think twice before interrupting Anthony Johnson.

Johnson (21-5 MMA, 12-5 UFC), who meets fellow contender Glover Teixeira (25-4 MMA, 8-2 UFC) in Saturday’s UFC 202 light-heavyweight co-headliner, took part in Thursday’s open workouts and a subsequent Q&A session with media and fans.

But “Rumble,” whose bout airs on pay-per-view from T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, quickly became irked by one annoying fan.

After AXS TV “Inside MMA” reporter Ron Kruck asked Johnson about Wednesday’s press-conference free-for-all, the fan blurted out, “Stupid (expletive) question!”

Kruck’s response? “Thank you, thank you. I’m getting paid. Are you?”

When the crowd laughed, the fan began to blurt out something else, but Johnson quickly silenced him.

“Man, shut up!” Johnson said. “Let me answer the question. You’re talking for no reason.”

After an uncomfortable silence – and a quieted fan – Johnson, who’s No. 3 in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA light-heavyweight rankings, continued the Q&A.

Check out the full exchange (at the 5:35 mark), as well as Johnson’s thoughts on the matchup with No. 5-ranked Teixeira and his open-workout highlights, above.
