AUSTIN, Texas – Prior to his now legendary UFC 117 clash with Anderson
Silva, UFC middleweight contender Chael Sonnen launched a months-long
verbal assault of epic proportions.
While an official date has yet to be announced for the forthcoming rematch, Sonnen is already up to his old tricks.
And while it’s Silva on whom the challenger is most focused, he’s got
some kind words for “a French-Canadian Minnie Mouse,” the UFC’s
heavyweight champion with a “$5 haircut and a knife tattooed on [his]
chest,” and a certain “Axe Murderer” who Sonnen says “used to be a
fighter.”
