James Vick ’s eagerness to compete in front of the Texas faithful in his home state resulted in an unwelcomed layoff from competition. “The Texicutioner” has not fought since August 2013, when he submitted Ramsey Nijem in 58 seconds at “UFC Fight Night 26: Shogun vs. Sonnen.” He was ready for another bout soon after but requested to be placed on the UFC 170 card, which went down at Dallas’ American Airlines Center in March. Born in Mineral Wells, Vick has not fought professionally in his home state in nearly three years
