PRIDE - Critical Countdown Absolute MMA video of Antonio Rogerio “Minotoro” Nogueira Vs. Alistair “Demolition Man” Overeem. This was the second fight between the two. It took place July 1, 2006 at the Saitama Super Arena, Saitama, Japan. |
Overeem did quite well for the 1st 5mins until Nogueri gave him some GnP.
2nd Round he seems to hesitate on on throwing low kicks.
Y did Overeem’s corner throw the towel? He seems to be able to hang in there for awhile.
Unfortunate for Overeem — controlled the whole fight.
very good fight. thanks for the post.
Overeem threw the fight.
Wtf, who’s the keener who threw in the towel?Also it looks like Overeem’s lady has some sharp finger nails,lol
Awesome fight! and what a left!! but why throw the towel? I think Overeem would have recovered in time to continue…Still gotta love the Nogueiras!
that towel came in a bit fast….damn
overeem: amazing kicks but with that kind of reach he should be more effective with his hands.
nogueira: extraordinary fighter, the more he gets hit the better he gets.
Who the hell threw in that towel??? Overeem could have won this fight! In Overeem’s pants I would fire his crew!
I really like big Nog, but I know Frank Mer will kick his ass in Dec.
finally a player that hides the time bar!
nice fight to watch, thx 4 posting!
That was the strangest thing I’ve ever seen. Who the freak threw that towel in? Alistair is a world class fighter and not some TUF upstart that needs to be saved by his corner. Overeem should can the dude that threw in the towel, but it was probably his old man.
alistar is not good
what the fuck why did they throw the towel so early?
was he injured?
The Nogueira brothers’ standup is very underrated. Rogerio knocked out Edwin Dewees at Affliction with some nasty knees from a thai clinch.
Thanks for the towel; anyone seem my washcloth
Overeem has brought shame to his people…………………………………. he will not be allowed to eat hummus ever again.
Overeem had neck problems on that fight.
He was dazed and as soon as Rogerio graved the neck they threw the towel.
That’s BS! so what if Overeem had a neck priblem!? he shouldnt have even entered the ring if his corner thinks hes was not in shape! Towel was too early! A true gladiator finishes what is there to finish! There should have not been gloves in this MMA at the first place! Soon we will have a match with knees padded, head gears and elbows capped…thats lame!
Not impressed at all with Nog. At 11:29, Overeem should have followed up with a flurry and he prob would have finished him. I am floored with Overeem’s boxing / kicking dominance.
Nog did not win. Just like you all have said,
towel too early!!
