Rodrigo Minotauro Wants To Fight For The Heavyweight Belt Again



Quote:
- Like everyone else who is competing, i dream with the belt. Surely not discount that possibility, if I get through this fight (against Werdum). Yes it is a big dream that everyone who participates in this competition has. - Minotauro said.


About the fight against Werdum, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira showed respect and acknowledged that the opponent is much more prepared than the first fight between them in 2006, in Pride. At the time, dueling was very balanced on the floor, with Nogueira with advantage in standup, exactly what led him to get the points victory. The two fight again in June.


- I had standing advantage in striking. But it has to pass an eraser on it. Every fight is a story. Werdum has improved greatly since then. I always see fights and his performance. It will be a great fight. I hope a better guy than what I fought - completed.

BTW I wonder if this has to do with JDS not being the champ anymore?

Nog is the greatest HW ever in my book. He just has to much mileage to make another run.

well good news for him. Winner of Nog VS Werdum gets a title shot. Sadly for the first time I'll be cheering against Nog since i'd like to see Werdum fight Cain (if he's still champ). (and if Reem beats Bigfoot and Cain) i don't know. I don't want to see Nog get blasted by Reem.

He won't get past Werdum. Nog is a shell of his former self, which won't win him any championships imo.
