Any time a fighter is asked to fight in front of their hometown crowd, as Joe Lauzon was at UFC 118 against Gabe Ruediger, you have to worry about nerves. Problem for Ruediger was that someone forgot to tell Lauzon that.
Here's how it went down for Boston's own. First he took Ruediger down hard. Then he pounded the heck out of him, changing positions on the ground as he went. Eventually, he found himself punching a hole in Ruediger's head while positioned on his back, and this led to the armbar transition that he finished him with.
Total domination, folks. Joe Lauzon defeats Gabe Ruediger by armbar at 2:01 of round one.
