Sonnen FAIL!

Over the weekend, CSAC Executive Officer GEORGE DODD says UFC Middleweight, CHAEL SONNEN was informed he tested positive for performance enhancing drugs after results came in from his UFC 117 post fight drug test. Sonnen put in a stellar performance dominating Middleweight Champion, ANDERSON SILVA for almost five rounds before losing to Silva via triangle choke. Though Sonnen took the official loss, he impressed thousands of spectators within Oakland’s Oracle Arena as well as close to a million PPV buyers. Anderson Silva was so taken by the beating handed to him by Sonnen, that he himself got down on his knees and rested his Middleweight Championship belt before him.

All of the glory may have been robbed from Chael Sonnen’s hard-working fight to leave us with a bad taste in our mouth. I hear that’s a side effect from steroids. Chael Sonnen may now just be an embarrassment to himself and to the MMA sport as news of his PED tests will add to the fodder that this sport may not be legit.

Chael Sonnen boasted prior to UFC 117 that it would be Anderson Silva’s final performance in the UFC promotion…well, Sonnen, looks like it may be yours.

Ed Soares: Sonnen-Silva Rematch Still on Until Told Otherwise

Few additional details have been released regarding Chael Sonnen‘s reported failed performance-enhancing drug test at UFC 117.

If found guilty, Sonnen could face up to a one-year suspension from the California State Athletic Commission, which would obviously put his title rematch against Anderson Silva, currently scheduled for Jan. 2011, on ice.

However, Silva’s manager, Ed Soares, told MMA Fighting Sunday that he has yet to hear from the UFC regarding any change of plans.

“I’m going to consider the fight being a fight until told otherwise,” Soares said. “If it is a mishap, I hope this whole thing gets straightened out.”

In a blockbuster development that will have far-reaching ramifications for both the way we view one of the biggest fights of 2010 and the potential for a rematch of that fight in 2011, Chael Sonnen has reportedly been informed that he tested positive for performance-enhancing drugs after his loss to Anderson Silva at UFC 117.

Sonnen will presumably be suspended, and a second middleweight title fight between Sonnen and Silva — which undoubtedly would have been among the biggest fights for the UFC next year — may need to be scrapped.

“[Sonnen] received his notice yesterday,” California State Athletic Commission Executive Officer George Dodd told Sherdog.com.

Oh, this is not good. The biggest comeback story of 2010 may well be fizzling out before our very eyes, as the California State Athletic Commission tells Sherdog that Chael Sonnen tested positive for performance enhancing drugs in the wake of UFC 117. CSAC Executive Officer George Dodd says Sonnen was notified over the weekend that he’d popped positive for PEDs after his loss to Anderson Silva at that event.

Vitor Belfort on Managing Life’s Little Disappointments: ‘I’m Expect Jesus, Bro, Every Day’

Look, nobody would blame Vitor Belfort if he’s a little pissed off right now. Dude has been trying to get Anderson Silva in the cage with him since January, but owing to the middleweight champion’s ongoing frailty, fights scheduled for UFC 108, UFC 109 and UFC 112 have all had to be postponed. Now, due to the world’s most unexpected beatdown at the hands of Chael Sonnen and yet another injury to Silva, Belfort will instead accept a dangerous (and, frankly, thankless) fight against Yushin Okami in Germany at UFC 122 in November.

A lesser man – or perhaps a man who isn’t married to a Brazilian Playboy model and therefore can’t already consider his life an earth-shaking fucking success – might think this was a raw deal. He might stew over it, maybe go on Tapout Radio and say some crazy shit about it, but not Vitor Belfort. As he explained on Thursday during an appearance on Ariel Helwani’s “The MMA Hour,” Belfort doesn’t get mad, he gets Jesus.

"You know what I’m expecting?” he said, when asked if he thought a win over Okami would earn him a title fight. “I’m expect Jesus, bro, every day. I’m expecting Jesus to come into my life and choose my path. Whatever out there is good for me."

GSP Confirms Koscheck is a Dick, Says If He Moves to 185, He Ain’t Coming Back

("Wouldn’t it have been easier to just accept my friend request?" PicProps: CP24.com)

UFC welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre tells our guy Fowlkes at MMA Fighting this week that he typically doesn’t like to get to know his opponents on a personal level before he fights them. Since we all know that deep down GSP is kind of a bleeding-heart softy, he worries that if he comes to like and respect his foes it will be more difficult for him to beat the stuffing out of them in the cage.

“It’s hard," St. Pierre says. "Because let’s say in the fight you have a good position on him to hurt him, you know, to put him away and really hurt him. It’s harder to do. That’s why I like to be away from my opponent."

Apparently – and to absolutely no one’s surprise — getting to know Josh Koscheck while filming season 12 of “The Ultimate Fighter” had the exact opposite effect. In fact, St. Pierre says the most difficult thing about his TUF 12 experience was just having to hang out in close proximity to that insufferable dick. And here we thought the worst part of the reality show for GSP would be not being able to go to Club Orchid for a few weeks …
