“I like to be the underdog.” — Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira Quote

“I like to be the underdog.”

“You know what, if I had to do it all again, I would do the same things as before. I would meet the same people, make a lot of friends, bring a lot of happiness to my country. I get to travel all over the world, doing seminars. I have thousands of students in the Nogueira gyms.”

“There are many promotions in Russia, and they are taking Brazilians to fight there. We need to do something about the Brazilian market, make it stronger to produce new fighters. We need new talents competing here, not there. They have no other option but fight outside of Brazil because there are few options here.”

“I think some might see me as the underdog - always working hard, but just never getting a chance.”

“It's definitely an underdog vibe at XO.”

“My whole career's been an underdog's.”
