‘The Texecutioner’ says he feels much better after moving to welterweight because it is much closer to his natural weight and he does not have to go through scary weight cuts anymore.
James feels that his stint at lightweight has come to an abrupt end because of the losses that he suffered and the fact that he wasn’t ranked in the division.
Compared to the scenario at lightweight, Vick is of the view that the welterweight division suits him better because the competition isn’t as stiff as that in the heavily stacked lightweight division.
Vick set to fight for his job
James believes that he will set foot inside the Octagon on Saturday to fight for his job.
Plugging the gaps
Getting into the fight, Vick knows that he has a few shortcomings in his game and he says that he assessed them and put in the required amount of work to ensure that they don’t expose him going forward.
Vick calls himself an ‘underdog’
‘The Texecutioner’ is full of respect for his opponent Niko Price and feels that he is the underdog going into this fight as Price carries a well-rounded repertoire of both striking as well as grappling skills.
