Antonio Rogerio Nogueira was booked against Alexander Gustafsson for a light heavyweight bout that could’ve determined the next contender for the title. Unfortunately, it was less than a week after when Lil’ Nog had to pull out of yet another UFC bout due to an injury. This has been a regular occurrence from the Brazilian, having withdrawn from several bouts during his UFC career, including his last two scheduled fights.
Never known to keep quiet about situations like this, the always entertaining and controversial fighter in Chael Sonnen took to twitter about the situation. Check out the following tweets he sent out as he cracked jokes about Lil’ Nog:
Lil Nog: the only man who has ‘no-showed’ more times than Axl Rose.
