May 13,2012 The Sunday Junkie: May 13 edition The UFC's lighter-weight classes underwent a shuffle this past week with bantamweight champ Dominick Cruz's ACL injury and featherweight champion Jose Aldo's apparent inability to find opponents.

In our latest installment of The Sunday Junkie - our weekly reader-feedback feature - MMAjunkie.com readers weigh in on those topics, as well as Nick Diaz's latest saga.

May 13,2012 Although UFC past used against him, Chris Lytle contemplating second run at office In running for office in his home state, retired UFC welterweight Chris Lytle learned firsthand how far MMA has to go before it reaches the mainstream.

On Tuesday, the 37-year old Lytle came in second in a three-person race for the Republican nomination for a seat in the Indiana state Senate.

But he believes his popularity as a mixed martial artist had little to do with his showing. In fact, opponents tried to use it against him.
