The Weekly Grind: Derrick Lewis and Roy Nelson have a baby, Cruickshank's poker game goes bad

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."

Happy 4th of July! Here's ones last picture! Go follow my photographer!
