    Now that Big Nog has officially retired, Sherdog should give him a proper send-off!

    Hespect! Glad that he's hanging them up, and hopefully he stays involved in MMA.

    Massive respect for a man crushed near to death my a truck to become the 2nd best Heavy of all time.

    It says a lot about him that he managed to win the UFC title when he was a shell of his former self. One of the toughest fighters I have ever seen in any combat sport.

    Biggest regret was he didnt finish Mir in the 2nd fight :icon_cry2

    My favorite and one of the best EVER. He fought so many wars over ELITE competition and found a way to beat every single guy except Fedor (until Dec 2008). I hope the noobs catch up on their mma history and find out what that man was capable of.
