shaggamuffins Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Has he ever actually finished a fight? Also what makes him next in line for A. Silva, just curious really. Was looking over his UFC/WEC record and its not very impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisOrton Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Hes another waste of time its quite sad really, Dana has really messed up this time if you thought what happened between Silva and Maia was bad you wait until this fight happens.

Danny2821 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 He's on a winning streak, and his latest win was over someone who was basically considered the No. 1 middleweight contender. They put Marquardt against Sonnen and declared it a fight to determine who would get the next shot at the belt after Vitor, and while I'm pretty sure they were basically just trying to hand the shot over to Marquardt, Sonnen beat him, so it's his rightfully.

FerociousKO Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 He is getting a fight with silva because he beat marquart and not to mention that he is about the best sh1t talker in the ufc. You heard it here first chael sonnen will beat silva. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShanePatrick Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 You'll notice that people on this board just want to find a way to see Anderson lose. Demian was going to somehow take down Silva and submit him, same with Thales according to a lot of posters on this board. Now somehow Sonnen is going to top the Henderson performance. Don't buy into the hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ichigo Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Plus he has the skills to beat Anderson Anderson has always had trouble with wrestlers Hendo, Lutter against both these guys he had trouble and both great wrestlers What both of them lacked was sticking to the game plan well not so much Lutter he got caught in a bad triangle but if chael works on his BJJ defence and sticks to the game plan and take anderson down Anderson will have a very very bad night PS to the OP records have nothing to do with anything in the UFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisOrton Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 He is getting a fight with silva because he beat marquart and not tomention that he is about the best sh1t talker in the ufc.

shaggamuffins Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I mean......If he has'nt finished anyone in his last....10 fights or so, why does anyone think he can finish Silva. Also I dont feel as bad about silva's last fight after I saw that ****fest last night, I would rather see silva dance that Shields hold a full mount for as long as he did and not be able to finish Henderson, pathetic.

FerociousKO Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I would bet you a grand that he doesnt. It's a recession where the fcuk am i supposed to get a grand.lol Maybe i will sig bet you when it is nearer to the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lethalQ Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 i have to say i think Silva wins this one. Sonnen hasn't finished a fight in the octagon. do you really think Silva will be his first or he can edge out a decision over silva? No he wont. It will take a fighter like Belfort, Jon Jones, or dare I say Ryan Bader. A fighter is going to have to have fast hands and KO power in them. Sonnen doesn't have this. Belfort practically knocked out Franklin with a punch that didnt even really connect. Belfort should be Silva's next opponent. But one thing is for sure this Sonnen vs Silva should be free on Spike. Come on Dana White you gave your word," to make it up to the fans." What better than to give us Silva's next fight for free. Plus that is insurance if the same Silva from UFC 112 shows up.

ShanePatrick Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Anything can happen in mma no one can be 100 percent sure of anything. But we can be 99.9% sure. I'm not saying nobody can ever beat AS, I just think it has to be someone more athletic and well-rounded than Sonnen. Just look at Sonnen's record - very weak against BJJ - you think he's going to suddenly be able to stop both AS's ground AND standup game for 5 rounds? That's crazy talk.

BBNAS Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Chael sonnen is HILARIOUS... I dont know about everyone else but I would look forward more to the "verbal beatdown" as sonnen puts it than to the fight b/w those two. Especially now with all this talk of how sensitive a.silva is. LOL has anyone seen the video where sonnen goes on to say that silva speaks the "king of english" and its all "does anyone want tea or want to play cricket" when they're at the back. LOL I know his exaggerating but its still hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hookster Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 never been a sonnen fan,simply because every time he opens his mouth its just nonstop rabble that makes me fall asleep,he goes on and on and on and on im suprized he doesnt put himself to sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lethalQ Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Sonnen has a chance may it a small one only if the same Silva shows up that showed up for UFC 112. Other than that if it is the same Silva we all know like the one who showed up for Forrest Griffen. Sonnen gets dropped in the first or second round.
