*Props to Around the Octagon.
Chael Sonnen‘s fight career is on hold indefinitely in the states of California and Nevada due to his felony conviction from that infamous money laundering scheme but of course, that hasn’t stopped him from being a douchebag dedicated instigator who probably realizes at this point, his best bet to make any money off Zuffa is to make a go for those Twitter incentives.
Usually, fighters wait until after their next fight to call out an opponent. But since, his next opponent who was supposed to be Yoshihiro Akiyama was given to Vitor Belfort at UFC 133 and Sonnen has no Octagon or UFC Press Conference to use as his platform, he decided to tweet out a few days ago, his desires to fight Lyoto Machida, Anderson Silva and even Lil’ Nog, all in one epic night:
“Machida is a gentleman. MMA is very cutthroat, and it’s sweet that Lyoto promised to never fight his girlfriend Anderson. That’s devotion…
I’d beat up Machida on the way to the ring to beat up Anderson, and I’ll kick Nogeria’s ass in the parking lot on the way to my after party…”
Sonnen, who is in Brazil according to his Twitter updates, continues to bash the Black House team:
“I would never bash karate.Karate produced many MMA champions, most notably..um..Then of course, there’s..Wow, I thought this would be easier”
“Machida is not a bad guy; he’s a victim of the Brazilian education system. There are better ways to get electrolytes than drinking piss.”
“Brazil likes to boast that it’s the power seat of MMA, yet it’s so-called champions bow to the man behind “Under Siege 2.”…….. Classy.”
“I still admire Steven Seagal. Anyone that can be that self-possessed without doing a damn thing to earn it, knows something that I don’t.”
“Yushin and I are in Brazil to follow in Andy’s ways. Got ballet shoes, a team of has-beens, even brought a fat talentless celeb for trainer.”
“I could write a dissertation on this experience:”The Tragic Interplay of Delusion, Insecurity, and Incompetence: the Nog Brothers’ Story”.”
Stay tuned for the sequel, “Help, an Asian Judako is Beating My Ass: The Anderson Silva Story”.
Sounds great to call everyone out, buddy but it’s really sad when it’s from the sidelines and you have no forseeable chance of fighting any of these guys anytime soon. Guess that’s why now he’s taken to calling out his haters in Sao Paulo to come meet him.
Sonnen is expected to reapply for a fight license before CSAC after his current license expires this June 29th, 2011.
