The Official Mixed Martial Arts Thread - New Rankings

Nog is going to fight Couture I believe at UFC 101 and then BJ is set to fight Florian sometime later this year. I know that the UFC has cards in mind until August, hence Aaron Riley not getting to fight so soon after the poor stoppage at 96 against Shane Nelson. I know about the Lesnar and Mir thing and have known since Thursday, just did not get around to it, since the fight does not have a dedicated main event as of yet.

UPDATE for Machida vs. Evans on front page.

[PinoyPhil]

Looks like Rampage didnt take the fight. Which is good I think it gives him more time to rest up. He was over trained for Jardine and needs some time to recover. Nog fighting Couture didnt hear about that. Sounds like a good match though I have a feeling who ever loses that fight is going home.

Well I do not see the UFC dropping either one as it really would be a title match a year ago, plus both of them are huge number bringers, both of them being top 10 heavyweights in the world. Couture is a hall of famer and Nog is a legend in MMA.

No the UFC wouldnt drop of course not there big draws but, they are getting on in years and they have familys and other goals. There is going to be a time to slow down and fighting isnt in that future much longer for them. At most three years and there gone to commentating and spending more time with the family for them. Could be harder for Nog because he didnt speak very good english xD.

Nog has gyms in Rio, Dallas, Miami and Tulsa and is part of Black House, the same gym that trains Machida and Silva. I do not see him spending time commentating but training some big fighters in America if he decides to leave Brazil like Wanderlei did.

He could do that but, if I him I would want to have some off time away from fighting.
