obscene gesture during last Sundays NFC championship g

SAITAMA, Japan - A memorable first for Mark Hunt.In a battle of hard-hitting heavyweights, Hunt (10-8-1) proved the superior striker, becoming the first MMA fighter to ever knock out Roy (Big Country) Nelson (20-10). He used a crushing uppercut to score a second-round knockout of Nelson in the main event UFC Fight Night on Saturday at the Saitama Super Arena.Hunt and Nelson went toe-to-toe from the start, with each scoring massive punches that threatened to end the fight at any moment. Nelson, the superior wrestler, also looked to take the fight to the floor on a handful of occasions, but Hunt was able to stay on his feet through the opening round.As the second round began, Nelson finally dragged the fight to the floor, but Hunt rolled and bucked until he shook free and got back on his feet.The 40-year-old from New Zealand, known as the Super Samoan, then began to time Nelsons attacks. When Nelson tried again to take the fight to the ground, Hunt countered with a massive uppercut that sent Nelson crashing face-first to the canvas.Hunt walked away with his hands raised while referee Leon Roberts signalled the end of the fight at the 3:00 mark of the second and awarded Hunt the TKO.Hunt, now 5-1-1 in his past seven appearances, appears certain to receive a marquee booking in his next fight. When asked who hed like to face next, Hunt simply replied, Anyone in the top-10.In the nights co-feature, Myles Jury (15-0) registered the biggest win of his career, taking out Japanese legend Takanori Gomi (35-10) in just 92 seconds.Jury came out firing kicks, but as he settled into a rhythm, it was his hands that did the damage. After avoiding a few wild Gomi haymakers, Jury scored flush with a right hand, putting Gomi down. Jury then pounced and sealed the first-round win with a flurry of punches.To come to Japan for the first time and have a win over a veteran like Gomi is amazing, Jury said after the fight. Its a great stepping stone in my career.The 25-year-old Jury is now 6-0 in the UFC.Despite fighting for the first time in more than two years, the 39-year-old Yoshihiro Akiyama (14-5) looked in peak form. He dominated Amir Sadollah (6-5) en route to a dominant decision.Sadollah tried his best to kickbox the judo master but Akiyama was able to get inside and take the fight to the floor in all three rounds. From there, Sadollah struggled to regain his feet and suffered the loss by a unanimous decision. Akiyama had 30-27 scores on all three judges cards.I was reassured that this is where I belong, Akiyama said after the win.In a womens bantamweight matchup, former title challenger Miesha Tate (15-5) won by decision over newcomer Rin Nakai (16-1-1). And while Tate was awarded scores of 29-28, 30-27 and 30-27, the victory didnt come without some challenging moments.Tate used her height and reach advantage to strike from range but the stocky Nakai still managed to get inside and twice took her opponents back. Tate, however, turned aside each advance and controlled most of the action en route to the unanimous-decision.I wanted to keep enough distance between us and not get caught by her takedowns, Tate said. I was trying to be strategic and aggressive but not overzealous.I had to be careful when she was on my back. Teemu Selanne Jersey .

Gay trimmed the deficit to six with a 3-pointer, but Harden drove on two defenders and skipped a pass over to Beverley, who nailed a corner 3 with 45.3 seconds left. Beverley missed 3-of-4 free throws down the stretch that allowed the Kings to hang around as Nik Stauskas trey made it a three-point game. Collison buried a 3 following a pair of free throws from Jason Terry, but Harden closed his evening with two free throws to account for the final margin.dddddddddddd The Rockets trailed by as many as 10 in the fourth.

Each team traded a basket before Gay drove and kicked out to an open Derrick Williams, who hit a 3-pointer to make it a 93-90 game. Motiejunas was whistled for his sixth foul at the other end, which allowed Thompson to make a pair of free throws and stretch it to a two-possession game. Houston trailed by three when Harden tossed up a high-arching trey that hit nothing but cotton to tie the game at 95-95 with 20.5 seconds on the clock. Gays jumper from just inside the arc rattled out on Sacramentos final chance in regulation. The Rockets grabbed the rebound and called a timeout with under a second left, but Hardens final effort was long. Sacramento led 46-36 at the half. Houston opened the third quarter on a 10-3 run to close the gap to 49-46 just 2 1/2 minutes in. Later in the quarter, Beverley nailed a 3-pointer to cut the deficit to two, 55-53, then the Kings ripped off 10 straight as a McLemore dunk off a feed from Collison highlighted the surge.
