Best Antonio “Minotauro” Nogueira Tribute

by MasterBlaster on March 19, 2010


I’m back wooooo. I think I did a fairly decent good job if I do say so myself. WAR BIG NOG! Antônio Rodrigo Nogueira, (born June 2, 1976 in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil) is a Brazilian mixed martial artist known for his technical mastery of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He competes in the heavyweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship, where he is a former UFC Interim Heavyweight Champion. He is widely recognized to possess the best Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in the MMA heavyweight class and being one of the best mixed martial artists of all time. He rose to prominence in the Japanese Pride Fighting Championship promotion, where he was the first Pride Heavyweight Champion from November 2001 to March 2003, as well as a Pride FC heavyweight grand prix finalist. He is the first and only fighter to have held Championship titles in both the Pride Fighting Championship promotion and the Ultimate Fighting Championship promotion. He holds notable wins over Tim Sylvia, Dan Henderson, Sergei Kharitonov, Mark Coleman, Valentijn Overeem, Ricco Rodriguez, Mirko Filipović, Jeremy Horn, Josh Barnett, Heath Herring, Fabricio Werdum, Semmy Schilt, Bob Sapp and Randy Couture. Total 39 Wins 32 By knockout 2 By submission 20 By decision 10 Losses 5 By knockout 1 By decision 4 Draws 1 No contests 1 Song: Disturbed – Indestructible

@TyGriffinator Oh well all I can say is at least your comments have comedy value as they certainly had me laughing at you. ;-)

jimmyoneshot March 19, 2010 at 19:37

@TyGriffinator And you name Junior Dos Santos too? A guy with wins over only 2 fighters worth naming, one of which Fedor has already owned. I suppose if Fedor can fight as well as Ferreira (also of M1 Global) he’ll have no problem dealing with him and will have him tapping like the bitch he is 1 minute into round 1 just like ferreira did.

And beating Gonzaga and a list of nonamers makes Carwin a top fighter too?

Velasquez is the only one worth a mention and HE says Fedor is number 1 :-D

@TyGriffinator Except Dana white wouldn’t sign him because he’ll do everything to avoid him bowling through all of his top fighters so Dana should grow a pair not Fedor. Mir would beat him? Lesnar? Is Mir not the guy who was getting whipped by guys like Ian Freeman and Brandon Vera while Fedor was slapping down the best in the world? And even more embarassing is Lesnar loses to Mir. Yes he came back and beat him and every ufc idiot rates him based solely on that yet I say who CAN’t beat mir?

hahahah bonds, “Because Nogueria and Cro cop cant fight” are you fuckin kidding me?

TyGriffinator March 19, 2010 at 21:03

HAHAHAHA you think Fedor is the best? Once he loses (which he will if he grows a pair and signs with the UFC) everyone will jump off his bandwagon and realize how stupid they are. Afredor would get his ass kicked by Frank Mir, Lesnar, Cain Velasquez, and possibly Junior Dos Santos and/or Shane Carwin

bonds911 March 19, 2010 at 21:29

he was lol velasques toyed with him the only good legend still the best fighter is fedor cuz noguiera and cro cop cant fight now but fedor still the top fighter of all time just the second place that belonged to noguiera is missin

i would never fight Antonio “Minotauro” Nogueira, why because, 1. he can take a fucking ass beating. 2. hes a black belt in BJJ, and hes a beast

theres fighters where they use technique, theres fighters that use their size but its fighters like Nogueira who are a real insperation and put there heart and soul into every fight a future hall of famer if not already

By Creed: Stand Here with Me, Rain, Overcome (that would go great for an underdog), My Sacrifice, Are You Ready?
By Staind: This is It, Right Here Waiting, So Far Away

Can you recommend me some songs? Because I never listen to Creed or Staind, I listen to mostly hiphop. The songs in these tributes are songs my sister listens to.

TyGriffinator March 20, 2010 at 01:01

Another great vid, but where’s something from the Couture fight? Looking forward to your next tribute, you have the best mma videos and I love your choice of songs too (how about something by Creed or Staind?).
