At UFC 117, Chael Sonnen did the impossible and completely dominated reigning UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva.
Whether it was a lack of focus, a broken rib or any of a number of personal reasons, Silva just was not in form, and he nearly paid the ultimate price for it.
But with their epic rematch a little over a day away, don’t expect a repeat performance.
Silva is extremely motivated and focused for this fight, and he won’t let Sonnen dominate again. In fact, I think the pound-for-pound king will completely turn the tables and put on a show at UFC 148.
