Niko Price is known as being an unpredictable fighter, but few people, if any, could have predicted how he would take James Vick out tonight at UFC Tampa.

Round one

Price tagged Vick with big right moments in, and not long after, Vick tripped to the mat. The latter got back to his feet, and in an ensuing scramble, Vick swept Price to the mat. As Vick tried to come down with a punch, Price blasted him to the face with a vicious upkick that KO’d the former lightweight instantly. Wow.
