LAS VEGAS (Jan. 15, 2010) – Despite losing a decision January 2 to Sam Stout, popular lightweight Joe “J-Lau” Lauzon (18-5, 5 [T]KOs, 13 submissions) hopes that his next fight will be this August in UFC’s debut in Boston.

Lauzon, a native of E. Bridgewater (MA), would certainly be a hometown favorite fighting at the Boston Garden. “We’ll see how it goes but I certainly want to fight at home in Boston,” Lauzon said. “I’d like to fight before that, where my fight against Stout was my first in 10 months, but not if it risks fighting in Boston this August.” (continue reading…)

Believe it or not, the transition from computer wiz to MMA fighter isn’t that much of a stretch. Listen to Joe Lauzon elaborate on his former role, and he may as well be talking about the latter.

“When I was younger, I used to ruin my computers just to see how they worked,” he says. “That way I could learn how to put them back together again. There’s something satisfying about figuring things out or trying to come up with solutions. It’s why I also liked math when I was growing up. I’ve just always loved the challenge of a problem.”

One of my friends from High School had ACL surgery a few months before I did. He was telling me how his knee is feeling good but the range of motion was coming along slowly. He had surgery in like November and I had mine in March, but I think I still have way more range of motion. I think this stretch is directly responsible. I was noticing results from the first time I did it so wanted to share it here with everyone else.  (continue reading…)

I had my 5 month followup today with Dr. Pavlovich today. I was originally supposed to see him on Wednesday but ended up switching it to today. I had forgotten all about it until about 3am last night. I was in the middle of killing Nazi Zombies playing Call of Duty on Xbox and my phone started beeping at me about my 8:30am appointment! Ughhhh. Needless to say, 7:30 came way too fast. (continue reading…)

Before my last fight, I was trying to buy a house but my lease was expiring shortly before I fought. Instead of signing a new lease, I decided to move back to my parent’s house to avoid rushing to find a house. I put in an offer on a house but it was never accepted and then I fought Jeremy Stephens at Ultimate Fight Night. As everyone knows, I had ACL surgery a month later and have been recovering since.
