| Can anyone tell me why he isn't in the UFC? or at least Strikeforce, I mean he's not the best fighter around but he'll give anyone a tough fight. | |

| He lost to Benji Radach in EliteXC....that's why. He is 20-10...thats why. The Rua bros are not the Nog bros....thats is why. | |

| He also lost a split decision to Dan Henderson, and he has a loss to Rampage which was completely bull, the fact that his name is Rua alone makes him a bigger draw
I mean he's not a monster but he's a lot better then some of the fighters the UFC keeps around | |

| It could be that his biggest win to date is over Joey Villasenor? | |

| Ninja has UFC skills, he has just lost at the wrong time to the wrong people. He was left for dead after that Benji loss. Further he has been hampered by his brothers struggles.
Also the UFC traditionally has felt their fans are too stupid to process brothers that closely resemble established fighters. Why do you think it took Little Nog so long to wind up in the promotion? I jest.

| Eh, he's not good enough to be a contender, but his fights are usually exciting. | |
