UFC 165 Jon Jones vs. Alexander Gustafsson Full Fight


Tonight's (Sat., Sept. 21, 2013) UFC 165: "Jones vs. Gustafsson" pay-per-view (PPV) event from Air Canada Centre in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, features Jon Jones, quite possibly the sport's greatest fighter, defending his Light Heavyweight championship against Alexander Gustafsson, a relative unknown who just might have the skills to dethrone the king.In the co-main event, expected winner Renan Barao takes on Eddie Wineland. An upset in that bout would certainly make headlines, so it will be interesting to see how Barao responds in defending his interim bantamweight title.Both fighters are 26 years old, but Gustafsson has a slight height advantage at 6 ft 5 inches, compared to Jones' 6 feet 4 inches. However, in reach Jones has a clear advantage with a reach of 84.5", where as Gustafsson has a reach of just 81.2". Both weighed in at 205 lbs. Supporting Jones vs Gustafsson on the main card are a stream of other good fights that should provide fans with top entertainment. Barao vs Wineland, as well as Schaub vs Mitrione should be fantastic warm up fights.

Clemson's Isaiah Battle Ejected From Clemson-NC State For Uppercut Punch


Clemson offensive tackle Isaiah Battle was ejected late in the Tigers' win over the Wolfpack Thursday night after throwing a vicious uppercut at NC State defensive back Jarvis Byrd. Battle swung a strong shot right under the facemask of Byrd, who immediately fell to the ground. When you throw a punch like that, it is hard to disguise, and Battle was immediately ejected. Not only was Battle sent to the locker room early, but he will likely face a suspension from the ACC after they review the incident.Instead, he was removed from the game by head coach Dabo Swinney and ultimately ejected by officials. There’s no doubt the ACC will have something to say about Battle’s actions that could lead to further punishment.The punch knocked Byrd onto his back and led to a skirmish. Battle was immediately pulled from the game by Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and ejected for throwing a punch soon after. There's no word of additional penalties for the apparent sucker punch at this point.

Jurgen Klopp Epic Nervous Reaction At Referee


Borussia Dortmund experienced a nightmare start to their UEFA Champions League campaign Wednesday, losing 2-1 at Napoli. Beaten finalists last season, BVB opened the 2013-14 Champions League season with a trip to Italy to face Napoli. Put simply, things didn't go well.Inexplicably livid with Napoli’s perfectly legitimate opening goal, Klopp appeared to morph into a gurning wolverine, and was sent to the stands by the petrified fourth official before he was eaten alive by the man-beast.The Dortmund manager later went on to apologise "I made myself look like a monkey out there and that's not on," "I overstepped the mark and it was really pathetic of me" Klopp told ZDF television.Napoli, coached by Rafa Benitez, went 2-0 up through goals from Gonzalo Higuain and Lorenzo Insigne, and despite Camilo Zuniga putting through his own net, they still lost. It’s not clear if Uefa will take further action against Klopp, although the defeat and the loss of his goalkeeper Weidenfeller in a difficult Champions League group is probably enough punishment.

Laura Okmin Saved By Charles Tillmam Video


The biggest play of Charles "Peanut" Tillman's day may have come on the sideline. The Chicago Bears cornerback showed some quick thinking in pulling Fox sideline reporter Laura Okmin from the path of a camera cart that was in reverse on the sidelines of Soldier Field. After Tillman saved the day, he got to lock eyes with Okmin and enjoy a sweet embrace. How cute. Maybe he will take her out for dinner later. This is just the latest incident with sideline reporters this season. Luckily for Okmin, she had Tillman there to save her or else she could have gone down harder than Pam Oliver when she took a football to the head.
