According To Dana White, Aldo Will Face Pettis On August
If you are a fan of mixed martial arts, you must be thrilled about the news concerning Jose Aldo finally accepting to fight Anthony Pettis. The Brazilian was not too fond of the idea at first but according to Dana White, he then accepted the challenge and now the two fighters are set to face each other on August 3 (the exact location where this fight will take place is still unknown).
Aldo is the current featherweight champion and on his mind Pettis was not a true candidate to fight for that belt, but after Pettis defeated Donald Cerrone in a very convincing way at UFC on Fox 6 on January 26, Aldo apparently started to reconsider his thoughts on Pettis.
This is a fight that will definitely benefit the two fighters as if Pettis wins he will become the new featherweight champion and if Aldo manages to defeat Pettis, he will get a shot for the lightweight title.
Tigers Beat Crimson Tide After 3 Overtimes
A really intense game was played between the Tigers and Alabama as it took LSU 3 overtimes to finally defeat the Crimson Tide 97-94. The victory was even more impressive because the Tigers managed to overcome a 10-point deficit almost at the end of regulation time and then the team was able to hold on for 3 OT’s until finally coming up with the win.
LSU coach Johnny Jones was quite proud of his team as he mentioned that their effort somewhat rivaled a great performance by the 78’ Tigers, whom defeated Kentucky in overtime despite not counting with any of the team’s five starters. “It wasn’t five guys fouling out, but going three overtimes after being down by 10 with less than three minutes or so to play … I thought it somewhat rivaled that.” Jones said.
Patrick Was Responsible For High Daytona 500 TV Ratings
Although it was Jimmie Johnson the one that got the victory at the Daytona 500 this past weekend, according to some NASCAR sources it was actually Danica Patrick the one that helped to increase the TV ratings compared to those of last year’s race, when the event had to be moved to a Monday night due to rainy conditions. It is reported that the ratings were 24% higher than those of 2012 and they are also the highest ones since 2008.

Brady Re-Signs With Patriots And Sacrifices Cash For The Chance Of One More Ring
Tom Brady is now 35 and he will be with the Patriots until he’s 38 as he just signed a contract extension with New England for 3 years. The deal is worth $27 million and although such a number might be considered low for an elite quarterback such as Brady, the truth is that the player was willing to take a cut from his pay check in order to help the team to free up some salary cap space as the Pats need to re-sign some young prospects.
Brady knows that this might very well be the last contract he signs with any NFL team, and he made the monetary sacrifice in order to see if he can retire from professional football with one more Super Bowl ring. The player has mentioned that he wants to play for at least five more years, but a new deal after the current one he signed is over will depend on how well he does during the next 3 seasons.
The experienced quarterback currently has 3 championship rings and he hopes that by taking the money cut he will give the Patriots the option of signing and retaining the kind of players that can secure him one more victory at the Super Bowl.
Montgomery’s Words Might Hurt His NFL Draft Options
Sam Montgomery is being projected by various mock drafts as a first-round pick, but some comments he made during an NFL scout combine might actually end up hurting his stock as he admitted that he used to take entire games off.
During the interview, the player mentioned that “You know, some weeks when we didn’t have to play the harder teams, there were some times when effort was not needed.” Montgomery was probably talking about how good a team the LSU Tigers was since they didn’t needed their best players at times, but he probably didn’t realized that for some such words are those of a lazy prospect.
After Montgomery made the comments, he apparently figured out that he had made a mistake and said that he is well aware of how different the NFL is from the NCAA, “There are no small teams, small divisions. It is all Alabamas and LSUs every week at the NFL. It’s definitely something I have to get adjusted to, but I’m sure with the right coaching I will be fine.” He said.

UFC 157: Rousey Defeated Carmouche And Other Results
UFC 157 took place this past weekend and it was Ronda Rousey who took the glory after defeating Liz Carmouche in the first round of their Bantamweight fight. This is the first time that a women’s bout headlines a UFC event and because it was so successful it will certainly not be the last one.
Another fighter that emerged as a star during this event was Robbie Lawler, who won the $50,000 Knockout of the Night bonus after defeating Josh Koscheck. Many believed that Koscheck was the favorite to win the bout, but it only took one round for Lawler to defeat him.
One of the most interesting fights was part of the preliminary card as it was clear that both Dennis Bermudez and Matt Grice fought with their hearts and at the end it was Bermudez who took the victory after 3 rounds. UFC officials determined that both fighters put up an outstanding show and because of that each took a $50,000 Fight of the Night bonus.
The main card was comprised of 5 fights that also included the victory of Lyoto Machida over Dan Henderson, the win of Urijah Faber over Ivan Menjivar and the victory of Court McGee over Josh Neer.
Jimmy Johnson Wins Daytona 500
Although Jimmy Johnson led only seventeen out of two hundred laps, he was out front when it really mattered: the final ten laps, and that allowed the experienced pilot to acquire his second Daytona 500 win on Sunday (he acquired his first victory back in 2006).
Dale Earnhardt Jr finished the premier race as the runner-up; the same position he has acquired in three out of the last four races. 14 different cars took the lead at various times, including the one driven by Danica Patrick, who was third with 2 laps to go, but who fell to the eight position at the end.
The current Daytona 500 champ, Brad Keselowski had the chance of getting the win for a second straight time, but Johnson managed to take the lead from him during the last restart. Keselowskis car wasn’t in the best of conditions as it had taken part in an earlier wreck during the race but he still managed to finish fourth. On losing to his teammate, Earnhardt mentioned that “I kind of ran out of steam, didn’t have enough to get a run on Jimmie.”

James Records Triple-Double And The Heat Defeated The 76ers In Philly
The Heat managed to win their tenth straight game after defeating the Sixers 114-90 at Wells Fargo Center. Lebron James finished with a triple-double: 16 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists while Dwyane Wade was the top scorer for the team with 33 and Mario Chalmers was third with 14. For the home team Jrue Holiday had 21, Nick Young scored 19 and Evan Turner finished with 16.
This was the 35th triple-double for James, and he’s now second to Jason Kidd, who has 107 triple-doubles. Third in the list is Grant Hill with 29 and Kobe Bryant and Rajon Rondo are fourth and fifth respectively with 18 apiece.
The game was a sold-out in what it was going to be a combined NBA-NHL event during the same night but despite having the support of their fans, the Sixers have been disappointing this current season as they are currently 22-31 and have lost four in a row.
When it comes to the Heat, its players feel that they are more a team now than last year, and on this Chris Bosh mentioned that “Everyone is coming together as a team and we feel comfortable with each other. I think we’re starting to play like we know we’re capable of playing. I think if we keep playing at this type of level, the sky is the limit for us.”
Te’o Is Projected To Be a First-Round Pick Despite Media Circus
Manti Te’o is going to be part of the upcoming NFL draft and he’s expected to be selected during the first round despite the media circus concerning a hoax involving him. Te’o was the central figure in an online hoax about a fake girlfriend that is still a bit unclear for many, and the player said that the teams that are showing an interest in his abilities can’t avoid but asking him about what happened, and on this he mentioned that “Some teams go to certain lengths, some just ask me, ‘Just give us a brief overview of how it was.’ And then they get straight to business. That’s how I prefer it to be.”
The player has had a really bad time concerning the hoax and he says that he’s still trying to get back to normal in order to focus entirely on his career as a linebacker. Te’o currently belongs to Notre Dame and he’s a very experienced and productive player with 49 starts and 427 tackles, and although he has interviewed with about 20 teams, he’s focusing on the Texans and the Packers.

Urlacher Is Still Negotiating A New Deal With The Bears
Although NFL free agency starts in March, Brian Urlacher is already an unrestricted free agent and fans of the Bears want some answers concerning the veteran linebacker, who has spent more than a decade with the team from Chicago.
For some critics, the abilities or Urlacher have diminished considerable as he is now five years short of forty and has spent a lot of time recovering from injuries during the past few seasons. These are certainly the kind of reasons that can put a question mark on a player’s contract, but it is also quite clear that Urlacher is the most popular Bears player and is also well respected by his teammates, which is why it will be surprising if Chicago doesn’t grant him an extension.
GM Phil Emery said that the team feels a great deal of appreciation for Urlacher, and concerning a new deal, he mentioned that “Where this ends up, we’ll work through with Brian. That will be a private matter. When we come to a resolution, we’ll let you know. Just know he’ll never be slighted. I have too much respect for him.”
Dubai Open: Kvitova Will Face Errani At The Final

Wozniacki was the winner of this competition a couple of years ago, but this time she was not that lucky as she had to face a pretty tough rival that is always ready to attack, and on losing to Kvitova, the Danish tennis player mentioned that “You never know what could have happened in the third set but there was still a long way to go. At the end of the day, she played a very good match out there.”
The Italian Errani got her ticket to the final thanks to a convincing victory over Roberta Vinci in two sets and she’s going to the game as the favorite since she has defeated Kvitova in their last 3 meetings, and on playing Errani, the Czech mentioned that “She moves very well. She has had great results in the past and played quite well today. She’s a very tough opponent.”
