Guys, give him some credit. He's not RJJ or a Floyd because he never fought professionally as long or were as dedicated as they were. He's also sparring with a 220lb fighter (Big Nog) who can throw hands too.
Obviously RJJ would beat him, but to shit on him is pointless because regardless of the fact the dude is one of the top (if not THE) fighters in the world. Nobody would expect him to beat RJJ anyway (UFC fans included)
lol. i love at how 2 mins he tries the floyd mayweather defense and literally just stands there and gets nailed 5 or 6 straight times.
Hes got the look and the stance, but he is to used to MMA. He gets hit a LOT, and is inaccurate. He isnt used to people moving their heads when he punches lol
I couldn't have said it better myself... He is a great MMA fighter but RJJ would kill him in fact any boxing fringe contender would kill him
are you sure its not his identical brother? I know his brother tried to represent Brazil in the Olympics for boxing, but he didnt qualify.
yea, that was kind of unimpressive. I actually was expecting him to look a little better...
I'm pretty sure it's Minotauro.
He looks like a decent enough amateur boxer, but not even close to the pro level, let alone the elite-pro level. Roy would send this guy comatose within the first minute of the fight.
he has horrible defense, even if he has the best chin in the world he'd get ko'd the fuck out with a poor defense like that. That actually is the worst defense I've ever seen in boxing.
You've obviously never seen me box!

Yeah, it's definitely Rodrigo Nogueira. There's quite a noticable difference between his and Rogerio Nogueira's frames. You're right about Rogerio Nogueira, although he failed to qualify for the olympics, he did take home a bronze at the Pan Ams, and won the gold at the South American games.
The guy he's sparring with is interim UFC heavyweight champ Minotauro Nogueira.

Any decent boxer would kill him in ring by boxing rules, he is great MMA fighter but that was funny when he was calling out Roy, he should stick MMA where he is doing great.
this is the guy who called out Roy? lolz...
