If Silva manages to duck Sonnen and gets out of the rematch he should give up the belt.

 

Thoughts?

Great first post, haha. Welcome to tapology :). I think this fight will happen. And I think Sonnen has a damn good chance.

I don't see why he would do that. Sonnen is his only fight that I will pay for at 185...

That sort of goes against everything i know about time, and physics. Are you from that parallel universe that Chael likes to talk about sometimes?

@Sonnenforprez, 1. Silva needs to lose to Sonnen for him to be the champ. 2. Sonnens already lost to Silva and thus isnt champ. 3. Sonnen isnt as good as Silva and thus doesnt deserve to be champ. (He has a chance, might win). 4. Weve actually got a few Sonnen nuthuggers of biblical proportions already, you should search the forums and find them, you'll get along well.

I really can't stand Chael Sonnen but with that being said he is a great fighter and his wrestling is top notch, but to call him the best of all time?? Not even close in my book.

Yeah calling him the greatest is a bit much, he's no Brock Lesnar but Sonnen is pretty good.

i think sonnen is the one whos gonna duck his promise to leave the ufc after this fight. anderson has 25 minutes to submit him, if he can't get the knockout that should be enough...

so Brock Lesnar is the best of all time?? that's even funnier.

So far, @Sonnen for Prez seems like a good-natured chap, as far as Sonnen devotees go.

I’ve always loved controversy, and I really love Sonnen, when he talks smack I just can’t help but laugh my ass off and cheer him on. Leading into the Silva fight I was just thinking “He’d better bring it”. I watched the PPV and man what a fight, he brought a whole 55 gallon drum full, finally someone took it to the Spider.

Also the fact I really don’t like Silva for some reason makes me dig Sonnen even more.

How strange. It seems like all mma fans love one and hate the other. I was actually a big fan of Sonnen's until he began running his mouth. "I've always loved controversy".- I can't say I understand that statement.
