Chael Sonnen not a 'Gang Banger' but he will fight Anderson Silva

(Sonnen is the real Shady)

Dana White confirmed that Chael Sonnen will be Anderson Silva's next opponent, most likely in Salt Lake City this August, and Sonnen has some words for Anderson Silva:

Did you perceive the goading, motioning, shouting by Silva to be showmanship or disrespect? Or perhaps a little bit of both?
Chael Sonnen: Look, I'm not a gang banger. I don't talk about "respect." That term is for street thugs, not me.

Okay. Note to self, Sonnen doesn't like Jiu-Jitsu because he is a Republican and talking about respect is a term for Avon Barksdale.

I will remember that next time I call a man "sir" or a woman "ma'am".

Is is possible to cheer for both fighters to lose?

Another classic from Chael. I’m starting to like this guy.
If Silva beats the Hell out of Chael we’ve really gotten nowhere.
If Chael grinds out a win, it’ll shock the world, no?
