The game in these situations is so mental. For us, its just about stay

LAS VEGAS, Nev. - UFC newcomer Cody (No Love) Garbrandt knocked out bantamweight Marcus (The Bama Beast) Brimage with 10 seconds remaining in an all-action fight Saturday night on the undercard of UFC 182.Garbrandt, who went 32-1 as an amateur boxer, floored Brimage (7-4) with a left and a right in the third-latest stoppage of a three-round UFC bantamweight fight.The main event at the MGM Grand Garden Arena featured the light-heavyweight title grudge match between champion Jon (Bones) Jones and Daniel (DC) Cormier.Garbrandt (6-0) becomes the ninth fighter from the Team Alpha Male camp in Sacramento to earn a UFC win.

Dillashaw and former WEC title-holder Urijah (The California Kid) Faber.The 23-year-old Garbrandt, a slight underdog, absorbed two kicks to the groin in the first round. But he rallied to wobble Brimage as the first round ended, saying later he thought he broke his right hand in the round.The second started with both fighters throwing plenty of punches in a back-and-forth round that saw Garbrandt drops his hands and egg Brimage on. Get your hands up, yelled Garbrandts corner.The third was more of the same as the two 135-pounders chased each other around the cage with bad intentions. Brimage pushed the pace and paid for it as Garbrandt tagged him and eventually put him away.Four of Garbrandts previous five fights ended in the first round and he has yet to go the distance, although he came close Saturday.Unbeaten Paul (The Irish Dragon) Felder closed out the undercard in spectacular fashion by knocking out veteran lightweight Danny (Last Call) Castillo, another Team Alpha Male fighter, with a spinning back fist at 2:09 of the second round.As Castillo (17-8) launched a kick, Felder (10-0) turned away and then kept revolving to throw the spinning back fist. Castillo fell backwards and eventually had to helped onto his stool.Felder, from Philadelphia, won a split decision over Canadian Jason Saggo last time out in Halifax. He was slated to fight later this month in Boston but stepped up to face Felder after Rustam Khabilov withdrew through injury.He looked razor-sharp in handling Castillo, whose UFC record fell to 7-5Lightweight Evan Dunham (15-6) lived up to his 6-1 odds by punishing Brazils Rodrigo Damm with strikes en route to a unanimous 30-27 decision. Damm (12-9) slapped himself several times in the dying moments of the fight, as if to say Dunhams punches were not hurting him. But the blood on his face told a different story.At the end of the third round I knew I was behind on the judges scorecards so I tried to taunt Evan into an exchange, Damm explained later. Both men badly needed a win. Dunham had lost three straight while Damm, a former world champion in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, had lost his last two.Former LSU fullback Shawn (The Savage) Jordan, a six-foot load at 261 pounds, knocked out UFC newcomer Jared (Tha Killa Gorilla) Cannonier at 2:57 of the first round and then defied gravity by doing a backflip in the cage. Jordan felled Cannonier (7-1) with a right to the back of the head and then finished him off with strikes on the ground.I would really like to fight someone whos ranked higher than me next, Jordan said. Its time for me to start climbing the ladder.The 30-year-old Cannonier, whose day job is repairing air traffic control equipment for the Federal Aviation Administration in Anchorage, took two months off work to prepare for the fight, raising more than $6,000 through gofundme.com to pay for his Arizona training camp.At 235 pounds, Cannonier was giving up 26 pounds. He did well until Jordan (17-6) caught him.Russian welterweight Omari Akhmedov (14-2) spoiled Mat Nilssons debut at welterweight, taking a unanimous 29-28 decision over the Danish-based Swede.

WASHINGTON -- An already rough-and-tumble playoff series between the Washington Wizards and Chicago Bulls now has a full-blown fracas, an ejection and a Game 4 suspension for Nene. What everyone will be watching when these clubs meet Sunday, with Washington leading the Eastern Conference series 2-1, is just how physical the play will get -- and whether things will escalate again. "Weve had scuffles all three games, basically. Youve got to make sure we dont lose our composure, where we get thrown out of the game like that. It doesnt matter who it is, we cant afford that," Washington coach Randy Wittman said after the Wizards loss Friday night. "So weve just got to do a better job. Hey, its very emotional. Emotional game, tough game." Nene was tossed with about 8 1/2 minutes left in the fourth quarter after wrapping both hands around the back of Jimmy Butlers head and neck as they stood so close their foreheads touched. Rod Thorn, the NBAs president of basketball operations, announced Saturday that Nene had been suspended one game without pay for head-butting and grabbing Butler "around the neck with both hands and attempting to throw him down." Butler made two key 3-pointers from there, helping the fourth-seeded Bulls win 100-97. "When you play physical ... things get hot," Nene said with a smile and a shrug Friday. During Washingtons victory at Chicago in Game 2, some lesser contretemps led to a total of four players getting called for technical fouls: Washingtons Bradley Beal and Trevor Ariza, and Chicagos Kirk Hinrich and Joakim Noah. So neither club seemed all that surprised at the rising temperature in Game 3. "Hes a guy, just like each one of us, hes a guy with a big ego," Wizards centre Marcin Gortat said about Nene. "Theres nobody in this locker room whos going to be pushed around like that. And thats just how he reacted. Does he deserve two technical fouls? I dont know. But at the end of the day, he got kicked out and we had to play without him." Added Beal: "It gets to the point where you just get pushed to the limit way too much, and I think Nene got pushed to the limit. Do we agree with what he did? Not necessarily, but he did it and wwe cant take it back.ddddddddddddquot; Noah, who has spent plenty of time jostling with Nene in the low block, called the ejection a "turning point" of Fridays game. Indeed, not only did Nene average a team-high 20.5 points and 7.5 rebounds in Washingtons wins in Games 1 and 2, but the teams entire approach changes when the 6-foot-11 Brazilian is on the floor. He provides big-body defence and soft-hands passing. He can score and rebound. Hes so influential that John Wall, Washingtons All-Star point guard, has called him the "X-factor." During the regular season, Washington won two of three games from Chicago, but lost at home 96-78 on April 5 without an injured Nene. The Wizards scored 26 points in the first half. As for what Game 4 would mean without Nene, Noah said Saturday before the official announcement, "Im not sure. I dont think it changes our mindset, though. Its a crucial game for us. All three games really came down to the end. Attention to detail is huge. The game in these situations is so mental. For us, its just about staying focused on the things that we can control." Asked whether he thought Nenes actions warranted a suspension, Noah said, "As a player, those arent things I can control. The only thing I can control right now is eating lunch and ice baths and sleeping and shooting free throws and things like that." All three games so far have been won by the visiting team, a pattern the Bulls would love to see continue Sunday, of course. "I cant tell you why thats happened," Wizards forward Trevor Ariza said. While Washingtons offence is particularly dependent on young guards Wall and Beal, the Bulls found some new sources of much-needed offence in Game 3: Mike Dunleavy scored 35 points, one shy of his NBA high, and Butler finished with 15, including a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 24 seconds to go. Wittman will want to come up with a way to change that Sunday, of course. What is not likely to change is the testy nature of this matchup. "It gets chippy," Bulls forward Taj Gibson said. "But youve got to be smart. Its playoff basketball. You can get ejected; you can get suspended. Youve got to keep your hands to yourself." ' ' '
