Antonio Rogerio Nogueira scored a stunning KO on his boxing debut, battering bodybuilding influencer Fabio Tadalafellas.
Nogueira is now 48-years-old and was making his latest boxing exhibition appearance in 2022.
Nogueira flattened Tadalafellas rendering him unconsciousHe took on Tadalafellas at Fight Music Show 6 at the weekend in Sao Paulo, looking to prove his worth well beyond his prime years.
And footage has emerged of the brutal shot which saw him pick up an extraordinary victory.
Nogueira traded with his rival on the ropes as proceedings turned into a real slug-fest.
And it was a booming left hand which perfectly hit the target, with Tadalafellas having his guard dropped right down.
It landed flush into the temple, and splattered the bodybuilder on the canvas.
He was out cold by the time he reached the floor.
The shot was stunning and sent a shockwave around the arena, and the referee quickly jumped in and halted the contest.
It saw him move to 2-0 in exhibition boxing, a sport he is clearly having significant success in despite his age.
At the first Fight Music event, he defeated Leonardo Guimaraes to halt his skid of defeats in combat sports.
His UFC career had ended in disappointment, having lost his final two fights in the cage.
Nogueira had a hugely successful career in the UFCgettyAfter a 2018 victory over Sam Alvey, he was beaten a year later by Ryan Spann.
And his final bow saw him beaten by narrow decision against Mauricio ‘Shotgun’ Rua in 2020.
During his stint in the UFC, he fought some of the leading operators around.
His resume includes the likes of Tito Ortiz, Rashad Evans and Ryan Bader.
And it will certainly see him go down with legendary status, given his equally impressive accomplishments in PRIDE.
It is unclear what lays in store next for the Brazilian star, who will likely continue boxing after his victory.
And the lure of bigger and better paydays may be enough to keep him in the ring until he reaches the age of 50.
