For Court McGee, this Saturday has been 10 years in the making

To say the road for Court McGee has been long and winding would be to not say enough. He's made the most of it, turning a stint on The Ultimate Fighter into a consistent and largely successful mixed martial arts career.

Well, mostly consistent.

McGee returned to action after a two-year layoff at UFC 194, where be bested Marcio Alexandre, Jr via unanimous decision. But to get there, he faced a gauntlet of pain, suffering and uncertainty.

The middleweight turned welterweight's had nearly a dozen surgeries to fix his nose, knees, shoulders and more, many of which took place in his off time.
