Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira will turn 41 years old a day before Rio de Janeiro’s UFC 212 in June, but the legendary heavyweight has no itch to return to action as a fighter.
“Minotauro”, who got a job in the UFC after announcing his retirement from the sport in 2015, has detailed his day to day routine in a recent interview with Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour.
Nogueira, who unlike former champions like Chuck Liddell and Forrest Griffin got to keep his job after WME-IMG purchased the UFC, is “excited" to work finding Brazilian talents for the company.
