I believe it was reported that he was 60-80% blind in one eye, although I am 100% certain on the authenticity if the article or it's writer.

Antonio RODRIGO Nogueira (230 lbs), nicknamed Minotauro and also "Big Nog" is absolutely one of the top 5 MMA heavyweights in the world, but I don't think he'll ever fight in the USA. Big Nogs is almost blind in 1 eye! His iris is all gray from cataracts. He's best on the mat grappling using brazilian jiu-jitsu, so his vision isn't as important as a striker's vision needs to be. Japan-based Pride lets him fight, and half-blind or not, he's one of the best! In America though, he won't pass the NSAC physical. Big Nog's beat Cro Cop, Dan Henderson(who recently KO'd Vanderlei Silva in upset), Josh Barnett.
Antonio RODRIGO Nogueira has a twin brother, Antonio ROGERIO Nogueira "Little Nogs", who fights as a Middleweight(205 lbs).
I've not heard his name other than his reference to Big Nog's eye. It looks like this guy, Bradley Robinson, is a poster on the "Ring Talk" forum, so he may know as much as you and I.

This is a response from one of his fans.

I for one am sick and tired of Bradley Robinson, his cowardly name changing, his pissing and moaning about that windbag buddy of his Silencio getting banned, how much more he knows about boxing than anyone else here (He picked ODLH by early KO) and just his overall waste of bandwith posts. Stop posting jerkoff.
