"I took my 11 year old son, Ty, to UFC 136. He is a huge UFC fan and
we traveled from NJ to go to the Fan Expo and attend the fight. After
Chael's victory, my son approached the security gate to get his
autograph. Chael lifted my son over the gate and took him behind the
scenes where the other fighters were either recovering from their fight
or preparing for an upcoming battle. A security guard brought me back as
well, and what followed is a father/son moment that we will both never
forget."

Chael took off his wraps and signed them for my son. There are
professional photo sessions taken immediately after the fight, Chael
included my son with him in the photos. He then took us to each locker
room, introduced us to the fighters and had them sign Ty's shirt, hat,
and program. We then were allowed into Frankie Edgar's
locker room where he was warming up for his title fight. Frankie
stopped his warm-up and spent time talking to my son and signing various
items. We returned to our seats to watch the final two fights. Chael
had the security people take us to a section where UFC fighters sat who
were not fighting that evening. Each of them signed my son's program.


Chael was a gentleman and gave my son an experience that he will
never forget. The entire UFC family could not have been more accessible
and friendly. I'm sure that there is not another group of professional
athletes that would be as inviting to an 11 year old boy during an
event. I will always be a Chael Sonnen fan after seeing his heart
warming interaction with my son.

I'm in the process of writing a similar story about myself. I think I'm gonna change stuff though so it's not too much like this.

So you are saying it's a story made up by Chael?

Chael is awesome! I always liked him even in the WEC but since the first fight with Silva he has became one of my favorite fighters. I can't wait for him to get in the cage with Silva and whoop his ass.

Honestly if I was that father and Chael was that cool with my kid, he would then become my favorite fighter. I remember Danas video blog showed Chael with this kid actually, that was super cool of him.

I have 23 minutes of footage I can share with you if you'd like? It's a video of Chael whooping up on Anderson Silva. I don't see how me thinking Chael will do the same to Anderson gets a facepalm. That is a legit fact that Chael dominated Silva before getting lazy and making a bad mistake which won't happen again. What is Silva gonna be able to do to ensure he doesn't get pummled for 25 minutes in the next fight?

Timmeh, ur facepalm gets a big huge palm
