Gnarly scar, right?

Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira is currently in the midst of rehabbing his arm and shoulder after he had both badly injured at the hands of deadly submission specialist Frank Mir back at UFC 140 on Dec. 10, 2011, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Mir viciously broke Nogueira's arm, forcing him to fly out the next day for emergency surgery, which was successful. It also left that gigantic scar that you see above.

Now, Sportv.com reveals that about a month out from his rematch against Mir, "Big Nog" suffered two separate shoulder injuries. "Minotauro" maintains that he was completely healthy for the fight itself, however, and it played no part in his defeat.

You know, even if he did re-injure said shoulder and half his arm nearly broken in half.

Check out a few more pics of Nogueira rehabbing his injury after the jump.
