i've only seen AA's sambo used against Brinks, and that was a long time ago. Both have great stand up, i give the better chin to Nog and better ground game to Nog. too close to call. i say 7 out of 10 times, Nog wins.

Big Nogs has better takedowns then given credit for, and very good boxing.. AA does have better striking style-wise but Nog can hang cuz he has a much better chin then AA has, and when you can mix your boxing with your takedowns you can take someone like AA down.
Werdum was weary of AA's power all fight, he kept trying to take AA down backing up.. Big Nog if he pushes foward can take AA down.

AA takes this.
I think if anyone can knock out Nog its AA, do i think he will do it, i dont know. But i think their is a very good chance that he can tko him, but most likely win by dec.
AA imo has better stand up, is faster, an has more power. If AA can keep this on the feet then i see no reason why he wouldnt take this.

Werdum doesn't have the boxing skills or takedown skills that Nog has.
I think it would be a close fight, and AA could definitely get the win, but, like Intellectual, I think Nog wins this fight most of the time.
It really depends on which AA shows up: The Pitbull, or the Shitbull.
Oh yeah. I am a clever bastard.

I like Nogs here. AA seems weary of wars, and I think Nogs will force him into a war. AA is more explosive and powerful, Nogs better technically so it's a 60-40 fight imo. Nogs would win the majority but I wouldn't bat an eye if AA won.
