Nog's chin at UFC 102 (gif)

 

That's not fair. He should have dropped.

That man can take serious amounts of punishment. Can't see Randy's feet, but judging him his hips and knees, he got some good weight into that punch too.

Irule - I guess the rumors of him being KO'd repeatedly in camp weren't exactly true.


 Well I don't think randy punches anywhere as near as hard as Anderson Silva.

Haha, because of the angle of the video it looks like the force of Nogs chin hitting Randy's fist caused Randy to stumble backwards.

I am just going to believe this is what happened. I'm pretty sure it weakens most fighters to connect with Nog so hard and have him just blink and throw back in response.

 It was a bunch of horseshit started by someone who is close to UFC and Couture's team. I guess they were trying to stir up some noise with the fight so close. But Ed Soares said it was all lies

I agree with Florian, he has a sink for a chin... And bloody elbow does not fact check..

LOL Serious. It's like Randy was backing up thinking, "Oh shit, that was my best punch."

I was really sad to see Randy go down so easy! I just dont want him to retire a veggie walking! He still has some wits to him. He should retire! Athletes in MMA are getting faster and younger, and Randy needs to let go before he takes one punch too many!

A couple inches to the left....

You should have went all the way and gave the third sentence an exclamation point too.

hahahaha you asshole that was funny

 later

A rematch with Mir should happen.

Still works.

I've seen him get tagged in the chin many times in fights and the dude just keeps coming. Mark Hunt-like.

After the Cro-Cop fight some UGer posted, "I think if you fired a shotgun into Minotauro's face, he'd still somehow end up armbarring you."

It's like Randy was backing up thinking, "Oh shit, that was my best punch."

Agreed. I hate to see Nog continue to stand and trade like that. He may win the fights but he has to be losing the war of longevity and health.

He beat Randy but he probably won't be near as healthy when he is 46.
