Etim vs Lauzon



Terry Etim & Joe Lauzon may well face each other in battle in Boston at UFC 118 as J-Lau verbally agreed to fight Etim. This will be a interesting fight for Etim who will be looking to get back to winning ways after his loss at UFC 112 to Rafael Dos Anjos in Abu Dhabi. A test for Etim as Lauzon has been around for a while with an impressive record of 18-5 a win against former world champion Jens Pulver is surely the highlight of his career.It will be interesting to see who wins as Etim has beaten Sam Stout by unanimous decision & Sam Stout has beaten Joe Lauzon by unanimous decision this shows the unpredictability of the Ultimate Fighting Championships.

Tellys vs Christmas at UFC 116



Kaobon fighter Paul "tellys" Kelly and American Jacob "christmas" Volkmann have recently been matched up to fight in Las Vegas at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on July 3rd.
