UFC new comer Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, the twin brother of former UFC heavyweight champ Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, came out quick and knocked out tough UFC veteran Luis Arthur Cane quickly.

In a fight with serious title picture implications, two left-handed Brazilians met in the Octagon.

Luis Cane immediately took the center of the cage and fired off leg kicks against the boxer Nogueira. Nogueira circled away and quickly began to connect with lefts. Cane was quickly in trouble and Nogueira finished the job with another left hand.

The path to my fixed purpose is laid with iron rails, whereon my soul is grooved to run. Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering BROCKLESNAR; to the last I grapple with thee.

couldnt see the standing strike from the angle, but I did see cane’s head snap around almost 180° from it

The message is that he will beat everyone, but will never fight Machida or Anderson Silva because they are close friends. =)

I thought Lil Nog has said

he’d fight Machida for the title.

One of you is right.

Yes beacuse winning the bronze medal by losing the pan-american games to the cubans, who by the way are the best in the world, and getting a golden medal in the south-american games (wich doesn’t have the cubans) is surely something that any MMA fighter can do.
