Niko Price Felt Disrespected by Alan Jouban Before Their UFC Fight Night 114 Bout

Niko Price spoke (via MMAjunkie) following his win over Alan Jouban at UFC Fight Night 114. Highlights are below:

On his first-round win: “I just took a striker out in less than three minutes, because at three minutes, I was supposed to take him down. But he fell down. He’s honestly lucky I didn’t hit him with the right kick. But I’m not in this sport to hurt or kill people’s career.”

On his post-fight celebration: “I said, ‘expletive’ a lot. I’m sorry.”

On Jouban underestimating him: “I just wanted to express, don’t ever go in to a fight and expect not to get hit. You’re going to get hit in a fight. I got hit, and I knew I was going to get hit. You’ve got to expect that. Don’t say I’m not going to hit you, because I’m 11-0 now. I’m going to catch you probably. Respect is for respect. If you don’t respect me, I’m not going to respect you after the fight.”
