well i like both here but big nog has way more to bring to the fight then kongo if they keep it a standing match then kongo would have better chance other then that i would say big nog cant wait to see this happen

I think Minotauro would win, but this is one of those fights where I could really picture it going either way. I'm sure that Kongo would be able to get in his fair share of strikes on the feet, but as soon as Minotauro takes him down it would pretty much be all over.

I thought Nog was fighting Mir?

i think kongo is getting better every time he fights , he was a little slow with cro cop , but who isnt, minotauro is a stud too but kongo has the stamina to go all three and will win by judges unaminus des.

I would say Big Nog, but he has not impressed me thus far in the UFC, maybe this fight will be the fight he shows the real Minotauro.
I would rather see Mir vs Big Nog than Kongo.

Big Nog will do takedown and sub Kongo out in 3rd.

Nog. In Cheicks fight against Carmelo Marrero he showed that he has no ground game, it could have improved by that fight but there is no way that it improved to the point where he would be able to hold his own against Nog.

They should have Mir vs Cro Cop, and keep Nog vs Kongo. We'll see Nog push Kongo down the list of the top ten, and hopefully see either the return of Cro Cop, or the reemergence of Mir.

Somehow, I find this highly unlikely.

Far better fighters than Kongo haven't been able to ko,tko, or even finish Nog.

In fact, noone has.
