UFC Senior Circuit: Antonio Rogerio Noguiera vs Tito Ortiz
by Dr. Octagon, J.D.
Small Nog hasn’t been looking too sharp. Tito Ortiz looked good in his flash knockdown on Ryan Bader, but recently lost to to Rashad Evans. Joe Rogan is talking about Tito’s retirement, which could be coming if he doesn’t look good in this one.
Round 1-Tito comes out swinging and landing a ton, a few good shots. Tito goes for the shot and has Nog on the fence. Dirty boxing going well for Nogueira, Nog lands a big left and Tito is in trouble. Nog is postured up and landing a ton of shots. Tito finally got Nog into his guard, but is still letting him posture up.
Tito going for submissions, but Minotauro is landing a ton of punches from the ground. Tons of shots to the body that Tito is not defending. Nog is showing great conditioning for such an old guy. Ref waves it off based on undefended body shots. Tito’s insides must be mush.
Rogerio by TKO at 3:15 of Round one. Tito says he’s fighting once more and then retiring.
