Former UFC light heavyweight champion Mauricio ‘Shogun’ Rua posted this photo on Twitter (@ShogunRua) on Monday, a who’s-who of Brazilian champions, all of whom belong to the Blackhouse Gym. From left to right are Lyoto ‘The Dragon’ Machida, ‘Shogun’ Rua himself, Wanderlei ‘The Axe Murderer’ Silva, current UFC middleweight champ Anderson ‘The Spider’ Silva, and Antonio ‘Big Nog’ Rodrigo Nogueira. I guess brother Rogerio (‘Lil Nog’) must have been the one taking the photo.
This image reminds me of a recent photo from the Blackzilian camp in Florida of Rashad Evans, Vitor ‘The Phenom’ Belfort, Tyrone Spong, Anthony ‘Rumble’ Johnson, and Alistair Overeem. Check the image out after the jump
