UFC on ESPN 14 live blog: Mauricio Rua vs. Antonio Rogerio Nogueira

This is the UFC on ESPN 14 live blog for Mauricio Rua vs. Antonio Rogerio, the light heavyweight co-headliner for Saturday’s fight card at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi.

The fight is a trilogy with 15 years of history. The two Brazilians met under the now-defunct PRIDE banner in the quarterfinals of the 2005 middleweight grand prix. Rua won the fight via unanimous decision. They met 10 years later at UFC 190, and Rua again earned a decision. Nogueira has said he’ll retire after the fight.
