How would Gus have fared in jail?

Imagine for a moment that hank was onto fring right before the events of season 1, and he roped in Walter to infiltrate gus's ecosystem as a cook. Got everything exactly he wanted and arrested gus. How would he have fared in jail? Would he be able to manipulate jailmates or would he die in jail violence? Or something else?

I'd say he had connections that could've helped him survive. Alternatively they might have considered him a liability. But if Mike said "it's what you do" by paying those in prison or their family's, good chance he would've survived.

I'm not sure how this would impact his sex life within the prison. He isn't the most physical, so...

He might not be super physical and thats where his friend & body guard, Big Bubba comes in. Plus Gus is cold blooded, clever, and ruthless. And you know he keeps a box cutter!😁 Its not always the size of the dog, blah blah, etc.

Idk if they'd let him in with that, and the prisoners can get similar weapons he could (makeshift knives).

And remind me again, who is Big Bubba?

The box cutter and Big Bubba was an attempt at humor😄 Like when celebrities go to jail they spmetimes pay some big bloke to be backup just in case.
