There hasn't been much sports action tonight, but if you happened to watch Seton Hall versus Villanova, then you got your basketball and boxing/UFC fill all at once. During the game, the Pirates' Sterling Gibbs was ejected after landing a forearm shot right across the brow of the Wildcats' Ryan Arcidiacono.
