Does anyone think Anderson will accept this bet? And do you think he should take this bet?

I think he has nothing to lose really he has cleaned out that division anyway so if he loses whatever go for the 205 belt. But for some reason I don't think he would get sucked into Chael's game and I believe he probably wont take the side bet.

@putaforinya, we must be careful not to fall into the same tendencies as Chael and his fans. We cannot discredit a fighter who we dislike just because we dislike him. Chael Sonnen is the most loathsome man to evern enter the octagon, but he is a very good fighter.

Chael is undoubtedly getting crazier with the **** he's saying, and TBH i hope he cleans it up a little bit. After watching his interview with Ariel Helwani it's clear he's into the WWE persona - he sounds like Josh Barnett and i don't find that entertaining at all. But i'm not going to discredit Chael's fighting, his grappling looked better then ever. I think if he can take Anderson down and push for a submission rather than trying to beat him sensless he's got a damn good shot of winning.

Chael is creating a lot of hype around a rematch which should make BANK for the fighters and for the UFC if the fight were to go down in Dallas they would make records.

@buffalo i have never once said that he wasn't a good fighter.  i totally agree that he is BUT you can be a good fighter and be boring and thats what i feel he is in side the ring.

Chael has dominated/beat Okami, Marquardt, Stann, Filho and beat the hell out of Silva for 4 and a half rounds. Obviously the guy is damn good and deserves this rematch regardless of what comes out of his mouth.

I won't be surprised at all if Chael ends up the betting favorite or even opens as a slight favorite.
