Nog
Better striking, better ground game, better chin.

I would have said that if Nog Showed for Herring but we cant gage Nog right now anymore because he sucked in that fight really really bad. I even think Heath won but barely. Gabe is on the up and Nog seems to be on the Down (I Hope not though) So I think this is an almost even war and I cant predict but if the Old Nog come sin Gabe totally looses. But If the Nog that came against Heath comes in Gabe will win.

Nog punched him over & over & over again, and Herring's face was mangled.
I think Nog would dominate him on the feet, and GG would be trying to get the fight to the ground. He may be able to inflict a little damage but Nogs will be able to control him enough to get stood up after too long.
Nogs by Unanimous Decision. Maybe TKO.

Heath was bleeding because of the early straight from Nog in the first. The rest of the fight was Nog getting kicked a bunch by Heath even that really good one almost KO'd Nog in the first. Then Nog trying to take Heath down and RNC him a few times while Heath reversed each and every attempt by Nog. Heath looks winded at the end so Nog wins by decision??? Thats Crap and that is how the Fight went. I like Nog and hate Heath so I am not biasing this fight at all with and impartial fighter hugging. Nog lost and Heath won IMO it was Close but Heath won this one again IMO.
EDIT: I just Rewatched the Fight because I haven't seen it sense the PPV and you are right I guess I thought Nog would dominate him so bad that Nog looked bad to me. So I'll Concede to the fact that Heat should of won the decision but I still feel Nog was fighting like crap even after rewatching it. And that was the Whole point in my reasoning anyway.

Heath got his ass whoooooped in the third fight. Nog schooled him all the first round an up until about 50 seconds at the end when heath landed that kick. Second round Heath came out again trying to end it and about 40 seconds give or take a few Nog took back over the clinic he was running. 3rd round Nog schooled heath even more.
Their is no way in hell heath won that fight, not even close. It was a one sided ass beating besides maybe a minute of the fight. Shit ill give Heath 2 minutes. 2 minutes does not win you a fight when your getting beat. Escaping submissions and then getting beat up so more does not give you a fight either.
You are the only person i have ever heard say anything like that.
Nog might have looked not so great, but first fight in the cage, 7 month lay off or so.
Gabe didn't look so good in his fight with Randy.
Nog is just all around better.
Only thing Gabe has on Nog is size an that imo does not matter in this fight seeing anywhere that Gabe wants to go Nog is just better.

Nog, unanimous decision.
I think both are too well versed on the ground for any one fighter to finish the other.
Striking, I don't think Nog has enough power to knock Gabe out, but history says Nog has the better chin so.
Man, I like Napao though. Hope his career leads me to start giving him some of these dream matches, hah. I'll revisit this after his fight with Werdum. I think that fight will answer some questions. Answers might lead me to pick Napao over Nog, Bas, Barnett, etc. in the future.
