Nurmagomedov weighed in at 158.5 for his lightweight bout with Abel Trujilo. He will forfeit 20 percent of his purse, so maybe that's why he was angry when he faced off with Trujilo. He got in his opponent's face, first bumping Trujilo's head and then pushing him back. He was quickly escorted off stage by the UFC's Burt Watson.
The best part of the scuffle? Mike Tyson was on stage and loved every minute of it. Look in the upper right-hand corner of the video to see his reaction.

San Antonio Spurs vs Memphis Grizzlies May 25, 2013
One year ago, the San Antonio Spurs were in this exact same position, as they took the first two games of the Western Conference Finals at home. However, this time around, the opposition has transitioned from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Memphis Grizzlies.
After those two wins, the tables started turning rapidly. The Thunder won the next four straight, earning a spot in the finals. The Spurs were left scratching their heads, trying to figure out what went wrong.
This year, the Grizzlies will be trying to befuddle those same Spurs. After falling down 0-2 in the series, Memphis returns home to FedExForum, where it is 5-0 this postseason.
San Antonio simply torched the Grizzlies in Game 1. Memphis clearly wasn't prepared for the level of competition, and fell, 105-83. Zach Randolph stood out in a bad way, going just 1-of-8 for two points. Tony Parker and Kawhi Leonard had their way on offense, shooting a combined 16-of-24 for 38 points.

Bayern Munich vs Borussia Dortmund May 25, 2013
Bayern Munich is trying to playing things down as the title favourite, while outsider Borussia Dortmund is eager to play up its chances.
Even before a ball is kicked in the Champions League final, the German rivals are at odds in their approach to the biggest game in club football.
Bayern is approaching its third final in four years with the self-assured calm of a team fully in control after a season of dominance, while Dortmund is enjoying the role of underdog with everything to gain and nothing to lose.
Bayern winger Thomas Mueller summed up his side's mood, saying that the showdown is just "a normal Champion League game."
"Of course you get goose bumps when you're on the pitch and we know what's at stake. We won't let it drive us crazy though," the 23-year-old said.
There was a similar sense of focus from Bayern captain Philipp Lahm, who sees victory for his side as a matter of progression ahead.
As much as Saturday's Champions League final might look like a classic underdog up against a giant type of matchup, it doesn't quite deserve that kind of billing. Borussia Dortmund's financial mismanagement in the 2000s put them in a situation where they needed to build up players just to sell them, and they needed a coach to get the most out of the solid, but unspectacular talent that they had. They've cast off numerous stars and will cast off more.
"The players are the right age now, the right character. There's nothing against us winning tomorrow," said Lahm, who added that he wouldn't be surprised if Bayern was to play a fourth final in five years next season.
Dortmund coach Juergen Klopp is happy with one.
"If this is the only final in my life, this is the perfect place for it, and this is the perfect opponent," said Klopp, who spoke of the honour of playing at Wembley Stadium.
Klopp said it was clear his side was the rank outsider, but he added that his players were determined to make the most of their opportunity.
"We will approach the game with unbridled enthusiasm, with huge motivation for the task, and with the knowledge it can all go to pieces," Klopp said. "But people have climbed Mt. Everest knowing that they could fall three meters from the top and yet they still tried it. And that's why we're going to try too, and hope for good weather."

Borussia Dortmund gegen Bayern München 25.05.2013
Der Countdown läuft...

Es ist das Finale in der Champions League. Ein Jahrhundert-Spiel.
Dortmund-Trainer Jürgen Klopp gestern: „Mein Gefühl wird immer besser." Es ist das erste Champions-League-Finale seiner Karriere.
Gaaanz breite Brust bei den Bayern. Trainer Jupp Heynckes: „Das war die beste Saison einer Mannschaft in 50 Jahren Bundesliga. Und wir haben vor, in der Champions League so weiterzumachen."

Dortmund/München. Es kann nur einen geben! Borussia Dortmund und der FC Bayern München stehen sich im Finale der Champions League gegenüber. Zwei Klubs aus der Bundesliga duellieren sich um Europas Fußballkrone, das gab es zuvor noch nie. Während die Bayern nach der Meisterschaft den zweiten Titel unter Dach und Fach bringen möchten, haben die Schützlinge von Jürgen Klopp so richtig Lust, dem Rivalen von der Isar in die Suppe zu spucken.
Samstag (20.45 Uhr, live im ZDF, bei Sky und im BILD.de-Ticker) trifft Bayern München auf Borussia Dortmund, der Deutsche Meister auf den Ex-Double-Gewinner, Heynckes auf Klopp, Ribéry auf Reus.
Es ist das Finale in der Champions League. Ein Jahrhundert-Spiel.
Das Fehlen von Mario Götze kann BVB-Trainer Jürgen Klopp verschmerzen. „Das wird uns nicht schwächen. Seit drei Wochen war alles darauf ausgerichtet, dass Mario nicht spielen kann.” Die Zuversicht des Fußball-Lehrers ist ungebrochen: „Jetzt ist die Zeit gekommen, Träume zu erfüllen. Wenn man als Außenseiter genauso viel Druck verspüren würde, wie der Favorit, wie blöd wäre das den.“
