    Forget the stucco: Let's go with the bloody UFC 155 canvas on the wall

    By The Canadian Press | Associated Press – Mon, Jan 21, 2013

    TORONTO - Thanks to UFC president Dana White, lightweight Joe (J-Lau) Lauzon has a unique souvenir of his bloody UFC 155 loss to Jim Miller.

    The 28-year-old from Bridegwater, Mass., tweeted that White had given him the blood-stained canvas from the Dec. 29 card in Las Vegas.

    "It's going on the wall," he tweeted, referring to his Lauzon MMA gym.

    "That mat looks like a mob hit!" tweeted one of his followers.

    Lauzon, who is known for exciting fights, had a nasty gash opened above his right eye in the first round against Miller and bled profusely throughout the 15-minute bout. Miller won by decision.

    Lauzon earned US$92,000 on the night, including a $65,000 fight of the night cheque. The bonus was the 12th of Lauzon's UFC career, tying him with middleweight champion Anderson Silva for most in the organization.
