Tuff one for Etim but I think he’s game.

This card is going to be stacked with lightweight fights. If anyone other than Kenny finishes his fight he is gonna be mad.

I would like Joe Lauzon to change his nickname to “Massachusetts Man.”

def. better than being named after a latina pop star

Great fight

Etim’s got some good BJJ, and although Joe is better on the ground, he’s not nearly as technical or skilled as dos Anjos. I think unless Joe gets a sub early, this is going to look like Lauzon-Stout…then again, Stout’s takedown defense is a lot better than Etim’s. Tough one to call.

I was actually hoping for a Lauzon-Bocek grapple fest, but this will do just fine.

It’s obviously not gonna look like the Stout fight.

Lauzon came back after almost a year out of the octagon. He’s gonna be much better prepared for this fight.

Not that impressed with Etim, Joe by some sort of submission
