Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira discusses his UFC 153 fight against Dave Herman, why he didn’t tap against Frank Mir and more with MMA Fighting’s Ariel Helwani.
For some reason I don’t believe you Nog.
Nog is such a humble guy…. “what he just woke up and knew how to do a triangle…” LMAO
Really? Humble? Because not tapping when you are caught and cant escape is the exact opposite of humble; its subborn pride.”Im so good I wont tap”. Thats the stupidest thing you can do. Could have tapped and been back to fighting early this year. Tap or dont you still got submitted and lost to a better grappler.
@swordsmanship Wooo….retrieve ur panties out of ur ass*hole buddy… Nog has the heart of a lion, thats why he didnt tap, he fought until he couldnt fight anymore. So quit slapping urself in the face f*****…. compare this guy to many other fighters that talk down to people i.e. Herman talking about hes going to retire Nog, and that jujitsu doesnt work, etc… yes hes humble… Herman aint going to accomplish much in the sport, Nog is and will always be a legend.
Vance +1
I would hit the like button for Vance but there isn’t one so thumbs up for Vance. How can you say anything bad about this guy after all he’s done and the gentleman he is.
Guys- did you all not see the fight? Did Ariel not see it either?? You guys need to watch the VERY end of the fight…..Big Nog DID tap!! Simultaneously when his arm broke. Of course him tapping wasnt what stopped the fight, but he did tap. Did no one else see that but me?? idk who Bg Nog thinks he’s fooling, but it aint me…Big respects to the Nog’s tho…
@ Bruno- Did you see it? What do you think?
Bruno: Don’t even remember.
*BANG* HEAD KICK to Swordswomansmith’s face!! Thats what you get for being a hater. Sleep trick!!!
at KungFool, How can you not believe this guy?
@Vance i was going to say basically the same thing you did but now i find myself typing about saying the same thing you did.
He has to regret it in a way.I understand his point but everybody regrets having to do rehab, stop training,and miss a fight.I’m not better the first times I rolled I got a dislocated shoulder because I didn’t tapped but i also regreted it.
