(“I make this look good.”)
If you didn’t get a chance to watch the replay of the number two best MMA awards – The Fighters Only World MMA Awards Sunday night, don’t worry, we got you.
The highlight of the show were Chael Sonnen’s (likely scripted) one-liners. From poking fun at himself, to taking shots at Wand and Anderson, “The Gangster from America” was on his game.
What we learned from the show:
• Frankie Munoz and Arianny Celeste make a creepy couple
• Athletes aren’t very good readers
• Dana White was too busy eating sushi in Japan to attend the awards
• Our invite still hasn’t arrived (must have gone to the wrong address)
• Shawn Tompkins was a beloved coach in the sport and deserved the lifetime achievement award and to have the “Coach of the Year” award named after him
• There are a lot of “celebrities” we’ve never heard of
• Leonard Garcia is a good sport for accepting the award for “Submission of the Year” on behalf of “The Korean Zombie”
• Arianny had no idea she would win, but she just happened to prepare a prop for Chael “just in case”
• Chael was right, Anderson Silva DOES speak perfect English
• Roy Nelson’s mullet is fantastic
• Jon Jones doesn’t see anything wrong with saying “you guyses champion”
