The Weekly Grind: Joe Lauzon's birthday beating, 'Cyborg' trolls Rousey, Sterling photobombs Caraway

The life of a professional fighter isn't all glitz and glamour. 

As if getting punched, kicked, kneed, choked and twisted into a pretzel on a regular basis isn't enough, fighters attract a general wackiness that makes their lives, well, interesting. 

To commemorate these day-to-day hardships, slip-ups, pranks, and more, we bring you "The Weekly Grind."
