The Making of Senna part 8: The Death of Ayrton Senna | Interview
"It was just bad, bad luck. And that?s the story we tell".
Tony Ferguson explains offensive TUF outburst
Ferguson discussed the incident in his post on the SB Nation MMA blog:
Why did I bring up Charlie's son? I have no idea, but I have a guess. My birth father wasn't there for me growing up. Somehow Charlie's situation mixed in with my adrenaline from fighting and the booze all worked together to bring up my own issues. I learned a lot about myself watching that on tape and how I felt about certain things in my life. I was under a lot of pressure, I was trying to bottle up frustration and it didn't work. Well, it worked for a while, but ultimately did not.
I said some things I shouldn't have said. I was in a weird place. I was having crazy dreams in that house. The entire experience took me out of my own independence and removed all of my release valves.
I really regret saying what I said to Charlie and we've talked about it since the incident. I've spoke to Clay Harvison and Chuck, too. We are in a better place now than we were that night.
In the post, Ferguson mentions that they started drinking immediately after the fights, and adrenaline was still pumping through his veins.
Every TUF castmate I've spoken to has mentioned how weird the experience is. They're in a house for six weeks with no television, books, visitors or privacy. They get to train, drink, and entertain each other. This is not to excuse Ferguson's behavior, but just to point out that this isn't a normal situation, and abnormal behavior comes out of it.

Advice from 30,000 miles on the Trail
Carry a PLB Kath and I generally hike alone. Rarely does anyone know where we are, because we tend to plan last-minute, according to the weather. We’ve always known that self rescue was our only hope in case of emergency. And we’ve always been comfortable with that. But as our backcountry ventures became longer and [...]

How to?build a home gym
When I moved into my new home, I spent a little time on reconnaissance for somewhere to train for climbing.
I initially thought a fingerboard would be the way to go. However, all the doorways were flimsy stud walls and not sturdy enough.
An alternative jumped out - Rock Rings by Metolius. If only I could find [...]

Another Japanese import could be on the way, can Hioki compete?
As a result, many of the Japanese fighter imports in recent years have been pretty disappointing. That might change if Hatsu Hioki decides to sign with the UFC. The 27-year-old is ranked No. 2 in the world at 145 pounds by the USA Today/Bloody Elbow rankings.
MMAjunkie reports Hioki passed on a recent off to fight at DREAM 17 and his manager announced the he's vacating his Shooto lightweight title. Hioki is going to attend UFC 131 next week in Vancouver.
"I think he's going to have a sit-down with (UFC matchmaker) Sean Shelby and try to work out a deal," Hirata said. "There is ... pride in wearing the Shooto world title, but I think that in the near future I would like to challenge a new stage of pride."
Hioki needs to break the recent slide by Japanese fighters who've come stateside. Of all Japanese-born fighters, Yushin Okami has probably had the most success in the U.S. over the last five years. Okami is scheduled to challenge Anderson Silva for the UFC middleweight title in Rio de Janeiro in August.
Shinya Aoki is incredible, but looked lousy last June in losing to Strikeforce 155-pound champ Gilbert Melendez. Aoki has won five straight since, including a victory over Lyle Beerbohm in the U.S., but is still seeking that signature win. Tatsuya Kawajiri was destroyed by Melendez in April. Takanori Gomi, 1-2 in the UFC, has had a little success in the states and Norifumi "Kid" Yamamoto is still looking for his first UFC win. He lost his debut against Demetrious Johnson and is now sidelined with an injury.
Hioki is 24-4-2, winning nine of his last 10 fights. His recent win over Marlon Sandro was an eye opener, but he also lost a 2009 fight to Michihiro Omigawa. Omigawa tried the UFC recently and was beaten easily by Chad Mendes.
Will Hioki help restore Japan's fighting reputation or find the same fate so many of his fellow countryman have in recent in years in the U.S.? The search is on for someone to dethrone UFC featherweight champ Jose Aldo. Maybe Hioki can be the guy.
