If you’re like me, and I’m sure that a lot of you are more so than you’d like to admit, you can’t wait to see what shenanigans that playful scamp Chael Sonnen will get into at today’s weigh-ins.

If you’re like me, and I’m sure that a lot of you are more so than you’d like to admit, you can’t wait to see what shenanigans that playful scamp Chael Sonnen will get into at today’s weigh-ins.
If the video above is any indicator of the focus of his training for his fight with Anderson Silva tomorrow night, he may punk everyone and try to stand and bang with "The Spider." If he pulls it off and wins the fight on his feet, expect the Internet to implode with all of the fairweather fans coming out of the woodwork to say "I told you so."
For the record, I predicted Chael would upset Anderson on the latest episode of The Bum Rush (which you should listen to if you count yourself a true member of the Potato Nation), but I may be eating my words come Monday morning.
Anyway, we’ll have the live stream of today’s festivities starting at around 7:00 pm ET, so check back then to see what goes down.
The video feed is after the jump.

If you don’t want to sit through 40 minutes of mostly oblivious reporters asking the same old questions that have been asked a hundred times and hearing fighters regurgitate their equally tired responses ad nauseam at yesterday’s UFC 117 pre-fight press conference, check out the above video by Heavy.com that gives you the highlights of the presser in just over seven minutes.
Not surprisingly, the bulk of the clip features Chael Sonnen spinning yarns about how great of a person and fighter he is and how much of a heel Anderson Silva is.
Ironic, isn’t it?
If you think about it, and this is easy for us to say since Chael Sonnen hasn’t been belittling us, our friends and sense of fashion, Anderson Silva might want to thank his next opponent for his over the top trash talk. It’s probably fair to say that if not for Chael’s vicious verbal assault […]
If you think about it, and this is easy for us to say since Chael Sonnen hasn’t been belittling us, our friends and sense of fashion, Anderson Silva might want to thank his next opponent for his over the top trash talk. It’s probably fair to say that if not for Chael’s vicious verbal assault heading into UFC 117, maybe there still would be a ton of focus on Silva’s WTF? antics vs. Demian Maia. Of course, the post-fight discussion took on a new life following his awful UFC 112 showing, due to Dana White’s insistence that Silva would get canned if he ever acted that way again.
Now we’re not trying to say Silva’s performance against Maia and his subsequent issues with White (and a lot of fans) has completely dropped off the radar screen, but you have to admit, Sonnen’s zingers have certainly dominated the headlines. All this aside, however, White continues to insist that if Silva does in fact have the balls to repeat his UFC 112 actions, Mr. #1 P4P will be unemployed (thanks to MMA Junkie for the quote).
“It’s about acting like a lunatic,” White said. “If he ever goes out and acts like a nut, like he did [at UFC 112], yes, I would cut him.”
Somehow we’re thinking this isn’t going to be an issue come Saturday night—certain things have been said; now it’s go time. To bet on tomorrow’s ‘this should be sick’ card, head here.
