At UFC 119, Antônio Rogério Nogueira will fight against Ryan Bader. On the 25th of September, the event will take place and these two fighters will be a big part of the same. To this point in their careers, each of these fighters has had great success.
Of the two fighters, Rogerio Nogueira is the more experienced. Nogueira, in his MMA career has fought more than twenty fights and he has managed to win 19 of the 22 bouts that he has taken part in to this point of his career. To this point though, he has not fought much in the UFC, and that is where many people find their downfall.
