Mauricio Rua defeated Antonio Rogerio Nogueira in a long-awaited rematch at UFC 190, and he’s targeting another rematch with a different PRIDE veteran.
"Shogun" returned to the win column in a thrilling bout with "Minotouro" on Aug. 1, and now hopes to meet Quinton Jackson in the first quarter of 2015. Rua, who shocked the world in 2005 with a first-round knockout over "Rampage" in PRIDE, is down to fighting the fellow ex-UFC light heavyweight champion.
"I respect Rampage a lot, we always talk when we meet, but this is a fight that we both want," Rua told MMAFighting.
