Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (21-5 MMA, 4-2 UFC) is injured and out of next week’s UFC 161 co-headliner with light heavyweight Mauricio “Shogun” Rua (21-7 MMA, 5-5 UFC), but one familiar name has offered his services as a replacement. And Chael Sonnen (27-13-1 MMA, 6-6 UFC) did it in the only way he knows how. “@ShogunRua I HEAR BRAZILIAN CHICKEN IS OFF THE MENU. AMERICAN GANGSTER IS STILL AVAILABLE IF YOU WANT TO SEND YOUR WAITRESS OVER,” he wrote via Twitter . As MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) reported Sunday, Nogueira was forced off the June 15 card with a back injury
