Bobby Green, along with his father and coach Jacob Benny, recently appeared on an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience podcast to have a chat with UFC color commentator Joe Rogan.
During the episode, Benny described his experience in jail as a first-time offender. He was in a California prison, where it is against cell rules to sit or trade with a person of another race.
Not knowing the directives, Benny ended up getting in trouble for rule-breaking. He got into a fight with another inmate in the cell, whom he choked unconscious. However, his troubles didn't end there as other groups started planning to take him out.
After a while, he was transferred from county to state. However, the person he previously ended up fighting was also moved with him. In the new facility, Benny witnessed a couple of his cellmates planning to take him out as they didn't realize he was the individual they were plotting to attack.

Benny told Rogan:
"I am sitting in my cell, I am getting ready to go to court. Two huge-a** guys, they are talking to each other about trying to get me. But they don't know it's me. So, I am sitting there, I am listening to everything they're going to do and how they're gonna try to set this sh*t up and I am sitting right in front of them. They're not even realizing it's me. And I am thinking, honestly, I'm like they're big motherf*ckers, they can take me out. There's only so much you can do."
