Chael Sonnen and Wanderlei Silva Starting the Hype For the New Ultimate Fighter Season Already

Self-admitted Steroid user Chael Sonnen was all set to fight Anderson Silva in a rematch for the UFC Middleweight Championship. However, his failed test after UFC 117 put a stop to that as he was forced to appeal his sentence. With that out of the way, Sonnen is now looking towards his next fight. With PRIDE legend Wanderlei Silva. You might remember this video.

Now with Sonnen title shot going to Vitor Belfort and Sonnen being unable to fight until at least March, people have wondered what his future will be. It had been rumored that he is up for a coach spot on the next season of the Ultimate Fighter. Is that a 100% certainty? No. Will it likely happen? Yes. And the trash-talking has already begun. 

Wand, you might as well fill out your own toe tag. Where is says "Cause of death," just write, "I pissed off a Gangster." 

All broken pieces of Wand will be half off on Greenlightdaily.com. Where ya at little guy, worried that I'll understand you this time?

Chael clearly makes reference to the video posted above, claiming he didn't understand Wand when he "backed down". Wand responded with an English and a Portuguese respond. 

Sonnan you start tolk about me, becarful or you go need call to your dentista

O sonnan ta mesmo querendo perder os dentes, vai dar merda capitao, depois nao digao que nao avisei

The hype machine is already in motion.

Damnitt!

I was so happy when I heard he’d juiced, now it doesn’t look like I’ll ever hear the end of him.

Drink to remember, drink to forget.

Sonnen defeats Silva via decision

If this fight happens, Sonnen will takedown and control Silva and ground and pound him towards a 3 round decision victory.

  • When was the last time Sonnen was knocked out?
  • I’m not sure about Silva’s KO power at 170lbs. at this age. With this famed aggression, he has not been hurting anyone recently.

Where by 170 you mean 185.

He knocked Bisping on his ass.

And I think the knees of death are still there, I’m biast with Sonnen hate but Wandy has a good sprawl.

Marquardt and Okami have good takedown D too and look what happened to them.

Sonnen and Wandy are ideal coach selections for TUF IMO

In terms of the actual fight, I’m not so sure. Wouldn’t Sonnen just take him down and grind it out? Seems like Wandy’s big name and deteriorating chin should be used to help create a new star, not re-inforce someone already at the top.

As much as I dislike Sonnen as a person...

… seeing/hearing him on TUF should be entertaining. Too bad Wandy won’t be much of a verbal match for the “politician”.

Bad fight for Wanderlei

He’d be going into that fight after a long layoff from injury and surgery and I think Sonnen would dominate him. Would be an interesting season of TUF though.

I expect alot of tears and furious fanboys after Sonnen beats Wand, I really hope it happens.
