Bigger MMA Legend: Randy Couture or Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira?

-Both fighters started careers in the same time period.
-Both fighters have held titles.
-Both fighters have had numerous epic fights.

In your opinion, who is the bigger legend?

Randy. To be considered a legend people really need to know you.

nogeira wasnt known worldwide to fight fans ?

i think a more accurate translation to what you just said is : randy fought for the UFC before nogeira did.....

Hmmmm can't really say since they both are legends obviously.
But Nog is clearly the better fighter and I think that he has accomplished a bit more than Randy.

Basically even.

Both are "legends" in the sport, just for different reasons.

I'll go VERY slight edge to Nog based on his win over Randy.
