Wow does Nog ever look decrepit lol. I hope he wins, but I fear the takedown D, and the speed of Schaub will lead to a W for Brendan. Probably KO in the 2nd. With the Brazil fans behind Nog... you never know though.

I think Big Nog is at the end of his of his career, if nothing else, way past his prime.
There are plenty of fighters that have been dominant over many excellent fighters for so long almost to a legendary degree. Nogueira fits that criteria.
But in this case, I think the New Era will reign supreme once again.
Schaub by 1/2 rd TKO.

I wish they'd stop feeding my most favorite aged fighters to this guys up and coming HW resume. They should just give him a TUF rematch against Nelson; they gave them to Maynard, Bonnar and Lytle? For Nog to have any chance, to the ground and early with this one. I don't know why they did, but it's interesting that when the UFC offered Schaub this fight in Colorado where he's from he said he'd rather do it in Brazil.

Schaub is such an attention whore. Picking on the old school fighters. He's really not that talented AT ALL. Fawkin' Crocop...he was winning then he telegraphed his kick without setting it up with his jabs and throws it away just like in the Mir fight.
Brendan will probably win this unless Nog miraculously gets it to the ground.

Dammit why did Cro Cop have to get knocked out at the last minute?! I wanted to see Big Nog vs Cro Cop 2 in Rio! I am disappoint, ill root for Big Nog by default, I think he is going to take it by Sub.

Sadly, this is not the Nog we all know and love, just a shell.
I know he got KO'ed by the Champ in his last fight but he's been out a LOOONG time, only training for a month, and he's just far too slow these days. If Schaub can keep this off the mat he'll get the KO.

Thats Lil Nog, lol.
I will be praying that Big Nog gets the Sub. he has been working on wrestling so he should be able to get the fight to the ground as he has always had good Takedowns and Schaub isn't a strong wrestler.
Hopefully he can shake off the ring rust.

This is one of the reasons why I see him getting KO'd ... I think he'll look like crap because of his super long layoff.
