Can't wait for this card.

One of the few guys left who holds a connection to what I personally believe was the golden Era of the sport.

Ive seen you post this in other threads and i wonder why you bear such antipathy towards lil nog that you want to watch his brain die in the octagon ?

It's a good time for him to avenge that loss since Rumble will be rusty coming off retirement.

Any version of rumble kills the current version of lil nog.

Fortunately* we wont find out.

Corrected to honor the fact that  nog wont die at the hands of a serial abuser of women.

<3 Nog but WAR SHOGUN!!!!!!!!!

I love both fighters, but if the shogun that fought paul craig shows up then i think nog takes it. 

He brutalized Tito's mid section that night. 

Always loved Lil Nog since Pride.

Favorite Character at LHW in UFC Undisputed 2. Power with his hands, great grappling and sub defense. Just wrecked everyone.

I think the same unless Lil Nog doesn't show up either.

Shogun is so hit or miss but he's my favorite LHW and imo the goat LHW who never tested positive

lol at all these years people NEVER getting the pictures right when speaking about Big Nog or Lil Nog.

Lil Nog article? Use Big Nog pic! Big Nog article, use Lil nog pic!

I feel like these are in the wrong order (most to least impressive)

Yeah 2 of my faves. Wish they could be fighting other opponents but at least this guarantees one of them gets a W!
