BAD MMA News — Mon, 03 Jun 2024 21:31:59 +0000

NEWARK, N.J. – Niko Price still has plenty of fight left in him. Price (16-7 MMA, 8-7 UFC) snapped his two-fight losing skid by defeating Alex Morono (24-10 MMA, 13-7 UFC) Saturday at UFC 302 from Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. Price won their first meeting in 2017 by knockout, but the result was overturned to a no contest after he tested positive for marijuana. The Florida native has fought former champions like Robbie Lawler, perennial contenders like Donald Cerrone, and rising welterweights like Randy Brown – and is ready to take on whoever the UFC puts in front of him

‘Legend-getter’ Niko Price ready to ruin Robbie Lawler’s retirement fight at UFC 290

BAD MMA News — Thu, 06 Jul 2023 22:15:21 +0000

LAS VEGAS – Niko Price thinks the best way to show Robbie Lawler respect in his retirement fight is by sending him out on a loss. Former UFC champ Lawler (29-16 MMA, 14-10 UFC) is set to walk away from the sport following Saturday’s welterweight bout with Price (15-6 MMA, 7-6 UFC) at UFC 290 from T-Mobile Arena. It serves as the featured prelims on ABC, ESPN and ESPN+ prior to the pay-per-view main card. It’s always a tricky assignment for the opponent booked against an all-time great when they say farewell to MMA, but for Price, it’s not exactly a new situation. He fought Donald Cerrone at the tail end of his UFC tenure, as well, so he’s comfortable in this spot. “It’s just another fight,” Price told MMA Junkie and other reporters at UFC 290 media day.
