I owe him my best."

				<![CDATA[Las Vegas, NV (USA) - Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira is a heavyweight legend looking to climb to the top of the mountain one more time following his win over Hall of Famer Randy Couture in August.

On Saturday, January 2nd, the main event of UFC 108 will see these two heavyweight standouts meet to determine a future challenger for the title. Also, former UFC light heavyweight champion 'Suga' Rashad Evans begins on his road back to the title as he attempts to avenge his teammate Keith Jardine's loss against Brazilian knockout artist Thiago Silva at UFC 108: Nogueira vs Velasquez, presented by "Bayonetta" and live on pay-per-view from the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.]]>

				<![CDATA[Thomas Gerbasi, UFC - "Obviously my last fight didn't go as planned, and that's a bit of an understatement." 
When Michael Bisping discusses his knockout loss to Dan Henderson in July, he doesn't do it with a sense of detachment, doesn't airbrush what happened, and doesn't come up with a laundry list of excuses for being stopped in the second round by the former two-division PRIDE champion.]]>
