I wonder if Dana White is rooting hard for LeBron James and the Miami Heat right now. A Bulls win continues the series…on Saturday. As if a struggling UFC 130 card needs serious competition from the NBA this weekend. As I write this, the Bull lead 47-40 early in the third quarter.
- Tony Ferguson tried to explain his drunken behavior in his SB Nation TUF blog. Maybe we can get rid of the whole “16 testy dudes in a house” thing.
- We looked at the new USA Today/SB Nation Consensus Rankings throughout the day.
- Editor emeritus Luke Thomas talked to Olympic gold medal winner Henry Cejudo.

- Dallas G. Winston broke down the three UFC 130 fights on the Facebook card.
