Who writes these? Because we may have a job for him.
Whether you think he’s the most entertaining character in MMA right now, or you think he’s the boldest sort of hypocritical cheater, you kind of have to admit that no one — no one — can touch Chael Sonnen for smack talk. There seem to be no rhyme or reason to his endless stream of one-liners, and there’s no telling who he’ll target on any given day.
Sonnen famously used Twitter to trash Anderson Silva in the lead-up to their fight last August, and Anderson (or “Andy”, as Sonnen likes to call him) has remained a favorite whipping boy ever since. Aside from Silva, Sonnen has gone to Twitter to shit talk Michael Bisping, Jason Miller, Wanderlei Silva, Vitor Belfort, Georges St. Pierre and the entire city of Toronto, the Nogueira brothers, The Hangover 2, The Bachelor, Mirko CroCop, Lyoto Machida… seriously, this guy is a never-ending fountain of the kind of talk that will get you curb-stomped outside of a Waffle House, then possibly urinated on.
In all honesty, we kinda wonder where he gets his material. Tweeting that many one-liners in itself is rather impressive, considering pretty much any one of these would be considered a burn of the burningest magnitude from another fighter. For Uncle Chael, it’s just another day at the keyboard. If he never manages to get licensed, he could probably make a decent living running an irreverent MMA site.
Actually, scratch that idea. But he could definitely be a Twitter consultant.
So we’ll leave you with this collection of Tweets, with one more point: this is his output in six days. If you know someone that can do this any better, let us know…because we want to follow him.
