Everyone's sick and tired of knowing that Chael Sonnen is the biggest loudmouth on the face of the planet. The guy says crazy stuff off the top of his head and won't ever issue an apology. However, we gotta admit he has to be, at the moment, the single MW capable of putting his money where his mouth is as far as dealing with our champs' threats.
Even though Anderson Silva has beaten every UFC record possible and is well on his way to be considered the biggest fighter who has ever set foot on the planet. Chael Sonnen has been, undoubtedly, the thorn on his shoes. The guy was able to do what most Spiders haters had already gave up hope, to control and beat Anderson for four straight rounds, just to slip up at the very end of the fifth and be caught in a triangle choke.
We can say as many negative comments about the guys' demeanor as we want but at end of the day he will still be – as he has proven- arguably the best wrestling ( Spiders Achilles' heel) on the UFC roster and the single elite MMA athlete who poses the style to beat Anderson.
Chael's overall strength is out of this world too. He was able to neutralize Brian's knock out power and strength and hold him on the ground until getting him on a arm triangle. So impressive!
I mean, one has to think that in order for this dude to hold anyone on the ground and pound for a decision would be a walking on the park - providing he steers clear of submissions, of course.
His coaches have already said their fighter won't be making the same mistakes and will finish The Spider this time around. javascript:void(0)
As a Brazilian and die hard fan thou, as this encounter seems to be certain, come fight night I'll be at the edge of my seat rooting my heart out for Anderson. Hopefully he is already doing his homework and will come well prepared to show us all the answer to Chaels' lethal weapon.
