but, i'm not even totally sure that Sonnen survives that round regardless, always looked like it was getting stopped in that exchange there

if Sonnen or anyone wants believe that he deserves to be champ then whatever

LOL Bovada. Tried to score the fight a Technical decision instead of a TKO. At least they got it fixed.

Ehh, I don't either but it's certainly an incredibly interesting hypothetical. I don't think anyone really disputes it was stopped a bit early regardless of Chaels post fight talk.

Bones obv deserves the win and Chael more than likely doesn't get out of the round... but damn what could have been.

Eh, I wonder if Chael can trash talk his way into a rematch. Could really play that broken foot angle and show that he'd win if he could get out the round.

There's always pro wrestling for Chael. No doubt he has the personality.

crazy that Sonnen is a decent ref away from possibly being the most undeserving champ ever.

How did Chael Sonnen even get a shot at the UFC LHW title? Has he ever even won a LHW fight before? lolUFC

aggy, IMO the only reason he got a title shot was because of all the attention the match-up got when Sonnen said he'd fight Jones on short notice when Henderson pulled out due to injury in like September 2012... trash talk sells fights but it's a joke of a matchup.

edit.. cant embed the gif for some reason.. that toe break was sick. so was bisping constantly raking alan belcher's eye knowing he's had detatched retina problems in the past.

got them at www.fightsummary.com

Longtime UFC fan but boycotted sonnen vs Jones since it was a joke of a matchup. One of the main reasons the UFC has achieved so much success its because the matchups everyone wants to see occur as opposed to LOL boxing.

Lets see Pierre vs silva or silva vs Jones or Jones vs any legitimate heavyweight

that "broken foot angle" really isnt a "I deserve another shot" angle however

Jones was
-750 vs Sonnen Apr 2013
-750 vs Vitor Sept 2012
-435 vs Evans Apr 2012
-500 vs Machida Dec 2011

The sherdog LHW ranks are
Jones
Machida
Henderson
Evans
Phil Davis

The really isn't anyone at LHW for him to fight. Jones would probably be around -600 or more right now vs anyone at LHW, aside from Anderson. I'm assuming the odds on a Machida or Evans rematch would be "worse" as we've seen Jones dominate them.

Sonnen was the most profitable of the squash matches they could make with Jones.

feel like a jones silva card would be the best fight right now. im just a casual fan, but i'd definitely be ordering a huge fight like that.

edit2: apparently it's just an amazon hosting thing or something. why is "cloudfront" autocensored?
