UFC fighters Joe lauzon and Devin Powell went through a more than embarrassing situation during training in the United States. Lauzon, who is preparing to fight in April, was sharpening his blows on the ground when a knee ruptured his partner's testicles.

The accident was revealed by Powell himself through his Instagram account. The fighter underwent surgery to drain a clot in his testicle, is doing well and even joked about the situation with his teammate.
“Thanks to the good outpatient services in Wells, I am ready at the hospital for surgery. I called Joe lauzon, we practiced knees on the ground and he ruptured my testicle with his strength. Your opponent has no chance in April…,” wrote Powell.
“The surgery was a success, now I am recovering. I can't wait to get back into the UFC cage, this will be the first time since my last fight that I will be forced to rest my entire body for several days in a row. I’ll come back stronger than ever, I didn’t expect this curveball, but I’m going to hit my recovery,” the lightweight continued in the next post.
In turn, Lauzon responded to the message with just 'I can explain'.
Powell has a record of eight wins and three losses as a professional. The fighter debuted in the UFC in 2017 and has two defeats, the last being to Darrell Horcher in a split decision by the judges, in June of last year. Lauzon has a record of 27 wins and 14 losses. J-Lau is coming off two losses in a row and faces Chris Gruetzemacher at UFC 224, April 7th.
