i know for sure that Arlovski would not KO Big Nog and Nogueria would take him to the ground and submit him. I say Nogueria wins via RNC in the 2nd.

How do you no for sure, can you see in the future.
AA CAN knock out Nog.
Why do you assume that AA sucks on the ground. He has a ground game just chooses not to use it.
AA by ko in the second.

AA via TKO
Nog looked too calm in his last fight. it looked like he didn't care what was going on.
AA looked hesistant against Werdum. Werdum had so many chances to knock AA down. if that slap was only a fist, Werdum could have won.
Russia via TKO

Russia via TKO | You say that Werdum could have won, well IMO and many others Nog > Werdum...
AA does have a ground game but it certainly isn't on the level of Big Nog's. AA hasn't been fighting with that same intensity that he use to, he isn't the same pitbull. Nog wins this fight, hopefully it wont be a dream fight much longer. AA needs to re-sign with the UFC and we see these two battle it out for the belt.

AA by ko in the second. | Nog's beaten better grapplers, better strikers, and better fighters than AA.
AA's biggest weapon on the ground is his right hand. Its ridiculous to compare their grappling abilities.
Nog by sub or shutout.

i clearly said Nog was not impressive in his last fight and he looked hesitant. Now i know that only 1 fight, but this is in the octagon. AA has a huge advantage and is use to being on the main event.
you said Nog will win, but how?
Werdum couldn't take Nog down, and Nog even said Werdum has better BJJ than him.

IMO Nog has never faced any striker that has the speed, footwork, power, and counter striking abilities as AA. AA imo is the most dangerous HW striker.
Thing is we think Nog has the better grappling, i would almost bet everything on it that he does. But we don't know how good AA really is because he just wants to strike. I think AA would be good enough not to get subbed.
Still AA by ko

I could see AA winning by ref. stoppage for sure
Minotauro got mauled by cro cop and caught a submission in the 2nd to save his ass.
I cant see him pulling a submission like that on AA
either way AA doesnt have a bad ground game he has an accomplished sambo background.
when have you ever honestly seen AA struggle on the ground in recent memory
he has an excellent closed guard and is hard to mount an offense against]
im not saying minotauro couldnt do anything against him on the ground...im just saying that if minotaro does get control off AA that you shouldnt look for a quick "Royce-Like" submission. Nog would have to work his ass off to submit AA.
Not to mention AA has never tapped.
