They say the last thing a fighter loses is their punching power, which was on full display when UFC and Pride veteran Antonio Rogerio Nogueira came out of retirement to step into the boxing ring.

In recent years, more and more MMA fighters have made the transition to boxing. Following Conor McGregor’s lucrative venture into the squared circle in 2017, the trend of UFC stars past and present wanting to compete under the rules of the sweet science is becoming rampant.

Francis Ngannou, Nate Diaz, and Anderson Silva are among the list of athletes that are somewhat active in the sport of boxing, but one name that went under the radar was the return of Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.

‘Minotouro’ was tasked with facing fitness influencer Fabio Marques. 

Marques, better known by his online alias Tadalafellas, has a big following on social media for his fitness and wellbeing content. Despite being in great shape, the influencer stood no chance against the former UFC heavyweight.

Antonio Rogerio Nogueira made short work of his opponent, swarming him with a barrage of strikes before finishing him with a nasty straight left in the second round—bouncing Marques’ head off the ropes in the process.

You can watch the violent knockout below.

This was Antonio Rogerio Nogueira’s first combat sports outing in three years.

Coincidentally, the Brazilian’s last outing was again in a boxing ring where he secured another victory, making it two wins from two since adopting his new sport.

Nogueira got his hand raised via decision when he met fellow UFC veteran Leonardo Guimaraes in the boxing ring last time out, but went one better this time with a huge knockout victory.

At 48 years old, the heavyweight is at the tail end of his fighting career and is likely approaching a definitive retirement.
