Last week’s Nevada State Athletic Commission meeting didn’t quite turn out to be the star-studded circus we all expected. Unfortunately, even this card was subject to change. At one point, it was thought that Chael Sonnen, Vitor Belfort and Wanderlei Silva might all appear—forced to face the music for a variety of drug-related infractions. In the […]
