Very soon, Chael Sonnen will get his chance to rematch Anderson Silva at UFC…wait. What? The rematch hasn’t actually been set yet?

Personally, I believe this rematch is more a matter of “when” than of “if.” Furthermore, I may not be the only one who believes that. It seems written in the stars, to quote the cheesy song phrase of the moment.
After his wrecking of Brian Stann—oh, and his near-finish of Silva in their first match—more than a few believe Sonnen can finish what he started if (or, rather, when) given the chance.
As always, we shall see. But I think there is a case to be made that The Spider wins this one handily. Here are 10 reasons why.
