PRIDE, Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.

Speaking through Fighters, Rua said:

"I think every fight is tough, but the fight with Lyoto and Minotor are
the hardest I've ever had. Fans want to fight with
Rogerio again and I think we will meet again. Minotor is a
type I respect a lot and we talk often. No one can be underestimated,
He is in the top of the category, and has shown. I
sure that the fight will happen soon. "
