UFC’s Niko Price reveals for years he fought ‘missing a bunch of ligaments’ in his knee – but recent surgery fixed that

Niko Price has shared the cage with some of the best welterweights the UFC has to offer, but for years he has been doing so with significant injuries.

The 12-fight UFC veteran has had his ups and downs in recent years, but despite coming off a win in his last outing, Price (15-5 MMA, 7-5 UFC) decided it was time to address a lingering knee injury. It’s a significant one that probably would have immediately sidelined most fighters, but one that Price competed with since 2018.

So, why take time away to fix the issue now?
