I got NOG by superior just about everything.. I think his jiu jitsu is better, striking and wrestling as well... thoughts
think it would look like the werdum fight
It's hard because I think Gonzaga is the bigger fighter. He also has gotten comfortable w/ kicks.
It's a good fight.
If it happens, I think Gonzaga will surprise a lot of people. He's got a lot of power and great grappling. I pray Sylvia doesn't get the title and that we see Nog vs Gonzaga.
I'm leaning towards Gonzaga.
I think the upcoming Gonzaga vs Werdum fight will let us know if he's ready for Nog yet.
Gonzaga should win IMO but he will suffer from giving Nog too much respect.
i predict a good fight
"I think the upcoming Gonzaga vs Werdum fight will let us know if he's ready for Nog yet."
agreed ... ttt for NAPAO!!
In 5 rounds, Nog, though I think Gonzaga has proven to have serious power in his high kicks, so who knows?
Gonzaga seems to have much improved standup, I think he makes it a close fight.
I think Gonzaga takes it, I think he rebounds from his Randy loss and goes on a pretty good streak to win the belt in the UFC. I think he has been improving a lot from his first fight in the UFC, has great power and of course great subs. On a side note, he is also a Noguiera. Gabriel Gonzaga-Noguiera
I'm sad to say I think my hero (Nog) loses this fight. Gonzaga is too strong and his BJJ will nullify Nog's game. I dont see Nog landing any takedowns and will get beat standing.
Gonzaga has ok standup, but it's far from fluid, he throws single shots from the outside. Nogueira has some real slick boxing, is comfortable throwing combos inside and out and has decent knees in the clinch. I'd say Nog by decision with it being mostly played out on the feet.
nog by whatever
nog
Umm . . . Has Gonzaga grown a pair of lungs? He has gassed in every fight that went over 6 minutes
If by gasses you mean had his nose broken by an illegal, albeit accidental, headbutt ?
Stfu, hater.
Oh, and Gonzaga.
