In his own special way, Chael Sonnen told us this was coming. We just wouldn’t listen. Or maybe we listened too much, but didn’t understand. All we could hear was a pre-fight schtick that was half pro wrestling heel and half insult comic.
And we loved it. We begged for more. We acted as if there were no consequences because that’s how Sonnen acted. Maybe we wanted to believe it just as much as he did.
In case you haven’t heard, the California State Athletic Commission has said it won’t be giving Sonnen his license back any time soon. It seems that commission officials are none too pleased about being openly lied to during his appeal hearing in December. Those government types are funny that way sometimes.
