Won’t happen. He’s gonna lose an arm.

only 2 days left until Chael’s arm goes SNAP, Crackle, and POP!!!!

I’ve always thought Filho was way over-rated, Sonnen has shown a lot of class and determination over the years to become a better fighter… I think he’s gonna’ get the ‘W’ unless of course Filho gets the submission hold again.

I’m still not convinced Filho is even gonna show up.

Lets Go Sonnen

Sonnen was winning the first fight till he got caught

by Ted on Nov 3, 2008 3:43 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I thought Sonnen despite loosing he exposed Filho as somewhat overrated. I hope he wins this time but really not a big fan of either fighter. I guess I like to see a KO so I’m on Sonnen side for this one.

I’d love to see Sonnen win, but he’s going to end up in a cast before things are said and done. Not tapping is only going to get his arm broke. The ref saved him from a cast last time they fought.

Not if Sonnen fights smarter this time. If it goes to the ground, you are right, but I bet Sonnen keeps it standing and dismantles Filho from the outside.

CHRIS LEBEN TESTED POSITIVE FOR STANZANOL?, a steroid, per fight opinion.com.

Sonnen by 2nd round TKO!

I’m taking paulo by sub. sonnon better avoid the ground if he wants the win. why all the hate for paulo? he didn’t stop the last fight the ref did. and now he is giving sonnon a rematch.

by doomdoom on Nov 3, 2008 1:28 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

doomdoom, I don’t think there’s a lot of hate for Filho, fans are just realizing he’s not as good as everyone was giving him credit for, his submission game is awesome, but a good GnP fighter can still get plenty of strikes in and possibly end it by cuts, his standup game isn’t that technical… plus he’s got freakin’ ‘MIKE TYSON’ tattoo on his arm… LOL

by THORAZINE on Nov 3, 2008 2:22 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Good stuff Thorazine. I completely agree. Filho is widely considered the #2 MW in the world, and he doesn’t look that good. All the time off doesn’t help him either.

by LJ on Nov 3, 2008 2:55 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

the hate for pahlo comes from him being a coke head and holding this fight up for almost a year

by brendan on Nov 3, 2008 4:11 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Good point Brendan, Filho being a cokehead never really bothered me though.. but that MIKE TYSON tattoo sure as hell did! lol.

sonnen came off super classy in the interview. More fighters should be as humble as him

by onthebutton on Nov 3, 2008 1:45 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Sonnen always comes off well in his interviews,, when I 1st saw that homely looking broad doing the interview I said ‘yipes’… but she was actually a GOOD interviewer!… much better than those hot MMA babes’…. I’m torn between a good interviewer homely chick or a bad interviewer but hot looking babe?…

by THORAZINE on Nov 3, 2008 2:27 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

i think that was loretta hunt from sherdog, but not positive. id settle for “cute and a good interviewer”.

by b.w. on Nov 3, 2008 3:25 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I hope sonnen win this one. But on a side note, I wonder how much the WEC PPV’s will run us next year. :(

by rydinlow on Nov 3, 2008 1:51 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

if its more than 29.99 and not completely stacked, i’ll pass and watch it the next day or on channelsurfing.

by b.w. on Nov 3, 2008 3:27 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Win or lose for FilHO! After this fight he should fight Palhares in the UFC? Then we can see were they both are.

by JV on Nov 3, 2008 3:29 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Gonna be a good gfight this one.

In the mean time…I found Rachelle Leah’s Playboy pics. Enjoy…….

Chael always seems like a pretty classy guy. Good interview. I would have been interested in hearing what he thought about his weight class being dissolved, potentially (but not a given) right after he wins the title.

by PJJ on Nov 3, 2008 5:09 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

Chael is a class act!!!! Cant wait to see him beat Paulo again…

by texen_1 on Nov 3, 2008 7:09 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

I’m a big fan of both fighters but a bigger Paulo fan. He did not look good last time in the least but yet was still dangerous enough to put Chael in a position were the fight was stopped. I don’t know if that is a good thing for Paulo or a bad thing. You have to wonder if Paulo’s subpar efforts last time were a direct result of his ‘personal issues’.

by obsessedwithsports on Nov 3, 2008 9:49 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

chael has a broken arm as I speek, but he doesn’t want to tell the dr. so he can get paid!!!!!

Trust me its true!!!!!!!!!!

by badman on Nov 3, 2008 11:52 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

FYI::

Watch Chael’s reaction when he comes into the ring, and then the first blow to his forearm. You will notice that he will be in a little pain!!

Wait and see!!!

They will probably call the fight, unless Chael can lay bim out in the first!!!!

badman from oregon!!
