Joe Lauzon: Team Torque

Joe Lauzon (22-9) has recently signed a deal with Torque for his bout against Mac Danzig. Lauzon is a fighter that exudes excitement. His finishing rate is ridiculous and he is known for being one of the deadliest first round fighters in the world. If Lauzon loses, it is generally to a decision. The 29 year old has become one of the sport of mma's most prolific bonus hunters, generally racking up Fight of the Night or Submission of the Night bonuses when he competes in the octagon. Torque have chosen to sponsor Lauzon for his battle with Danzig. Lauzon is the rangier, more potent finisher and has better striking than Danzig. As well as this, Danzig's strength is his grappling which 'J-lau' neutralises due to his own submission heavy game. Both men are coming off two losses so a win here is vital. Joe's pre-fight videos make him a huge fan favourite and an accessible fighter to have as a sponsor. He frequently plays video-games with fans and engages them on social media. Torque have a hugely entertaining fighter under their sponsor banner now that they have the very dangerous Lauzon signed and ready to compete.
