Along with coaches Amaury Bitetti and Rodrigo Artilheiro, Rodrigo Minotauro set off this Friday (December 12) for Las Vegas, where the final of the eighth season of the The Ultimate Fighter reality show will take place. In the USA, Minota will only return after his December 27 challenge against Frank Mir. And for this UFC fight to determine who will challenge Brock Lesnar for the definitive UFC heavyweight belt, the Brazilian will count on a big-name buddy: Wanderlei Silva.
In the past the news would be hard to believe, since the two fighters belonged to teams with a fierce rivalry – BTT and Chute Boxe, - but the current MMA panorama makes it clear those days are gone. These days professionalism comes first and, as the two will go to battle on the same day (Wanderlei faces Quinton Jackson), so they decided nothing could be better than making a union between compatriots.
“We’re going to be in the corners for the final fights of the TUF house. After the event, we’ll stick around till Minotauro’s fight,” said coach Amaury Bitetti, who added:
“We should train at Wanderlei’s gym, in Las Vegas, and use the structure he has set up there. Rafael Alejarra, who’s a really cool guy, and Wanderlei himself invited us. We’ll train together and put together a strategy. We’ll be mostly swapping information,” said Bitetti, who, when asked if Nog and Wand would be training together, responded:
“That’s right. United we stand!”

Re: Wand and Nog training together?
That would make some sense...............When both win at UFC 92 they should continue to train together!
What do you expect? The comedian is dead.
Re: Wand and Nog training together?
Yes, they are.
Alajarra is very glad with this joint training.
They're using Wand's gym for their training.
We're very happy in Brazil 'cause these guys are like real heroes.
