INDIANAPOLIS — Still in the midst of recovering from anterior cruciate ligament surgery on his left knee, and with a hip surgery still to come, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira is a full 5-6 months away from returning, making the spring of 2011 the rough target date for his next octagon date.
The MMA legend, who was supposed to face Frank Mir in the UFC 119 main event, still traveled to the show to work the corner of his brother Antonio Rogerio Nogueira, who is competing in the co-main event against Ryan Bader. Walking slowly and with a noticeable limp, Nogueira said the injury dated back to two years ago and was discovered to be a complete tear during a medical examination.

(A Croat, an asshole and a Brazilian walk into a bar…)
Frank Mir weighed in 25 pounds heavier than opponent, Cro Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic at today’s UFC 119 weigh-ins, dispelling any rumors that he is over his loss to Brock Lesnar and he will drop to light heavyweight any time soon.
Making weight, Filipovic got the final stamp on his Indianapolis fight license, which made him breathe a sigh of relief after an eye injury he sustained earlier this week in training left the bout in jeopardy.
Shortly after he weighed in, Croatian news outlets who had been asked by the fighter to not release the photo until after he was given the go-ahead to face mir by the commission printed this shot of Mirko’s injury taken immediately after the eye poke occurred.
Amazing how much he has healed in less than five days.
(Amazing what the power of Stevia can do for healing.)
Every fighter on the card checked in at their respective weight limits, thus making all of their fights official for tomorrow night.
Check out the official weights and the replay of the weigh-ins after the jump.
One last look at UFC 119 betting odds and some props.
:: Heavy line movement on headliner Frank Mir vs. Mirko Filipovic. Just a week ago Mir was around -220 on most sites, and he’s moved to anywhere from -260 to -285. If you still think Mir is the overwhelming pick to win this one as […]
:: Heavy line movement on headliner Frank Mir vs. Mirko Filipovic. Just a week ago Mir was around -220 on most sites, and he’s moved to anywhere from -260 to -285. If you still think Mir is the overwhelming pick to win this one as we do, grab the -260 at BetUs here.
:: For Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. Ryan Bader, the line has only slightly shifted towards Bader. If you like Nog, take the +150 at Bookmaker here. If you’re like the majority of the betting public and prefer Bader, take the -175 at Bodog here.
:: Very little line movement on the other fights. If you think Matt Serra still has gas in the tank, take his +120 here. And Evan Dunham fans get the best value with his -240 here.
As far as props go, check back for an update later today or tomorrow. Props have been listed but no odds yet.

Okay, so there’s no title on the line at UFC 119 in Indianapolis this weekend. There’s probably not even anyone who will emerge as a No. 1 contender in their division as a result of a win on Saturday night, at least not unless another major injury bug clears the path.
So where does that leave us? As far as the main event, we’re in ‘just for fun’ territory. Two former heavyweight greats with uncertain futures square off in a fight that is not terribly meaningful for the state of the division, but is still pretty interesting.
Is that worth your pay-per-view dollar? Depends on your perspective and your amount of disposable income. But if you’re on the fence about it, let me just remind you that Matt Serra and Chris Lytle are also on the card, and Serra didn’t bring a pair of big sunglasses to Indy with him for nothing.
Now let’s take a look at the betting odds for Saturday’s fights and make some hasty, financially ruinous decisions, shall we?
