They may say that “nice guys finish last” but Ben Nguyen proves that sometimes it’s the good guy who comes out on top. After the war in Vietnam Ben’s family settled in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, where they rebuilt their lives from scratch as refugees. Ben was bullied as a child so his mother signed him up for taekwondo. From his early days practicing in a church basement to stepping into the UFC cage, Ben has been fighting his way through adversity. In 2014 a video of Ben knocking out an opponent in 25 seconds who had tried to bully him at a prefight press conference went viral. Ben now trains alongside his wife, Australian fighter April Adams, and proudly represents his Vietnamese heritage in the sport that he loves.
