Sonnen responds to Vitor

Quote :

"First, let me be really clear and talk to you Vitor," said Sonnen, who's scheduled to meet Jones at UFC 159 in April. "You've been telling the world that you want to meet Jesus, and I will gladly arrange that travel. But first I'm going to get rid of Jon Jones, but you are next."

Great line by Sonnen. Even the haters can't disagree even if you don't think Sonnen can win.

How is that great and why do the haters have to agree? I think more agree with Vitor's unclear rant then Sonnen's.

Because that's a funny ass line. Calling someone a clown is just that. Arranging a meeting between vitor and Jesus takes a little bit a wit and a little but of knowledge about vitor.

That's witty? Not really.

Being unwitty would be saying I'm going to kill you.

Vitor's rant was so out of the blue and incoherent.

But telling a known Jesus freak that you will arrange a meeting with Jesus is creative and funny...hahaha now I get it...no it's really not that clever.

It actually made a ton of sense. Sonnen is an undeserving clown and Vitor would provide a much better fight and is more deserving. He was speaking the truth, even if he was too excited when he was saying it.

Ok smart guy. Come up with something more clever that Sonnen should have said. Sonnen had about 30 or less to respond so at 230 I expect and answer and we can do a poll on if you can be wittier than Sonnen.

I never claimed to be witty myself. Just that I was impressed with Sonnen's response.

Retarded response from Sonnen, no surprise. He's all talk.

Sonnen couldn't think of a better response because usually all of his shit is rehearsed. For once he had to think on the spot and he was caught out.

Sonnen is a master at shit talk. If he wasn't, all of you would love him. He knows how to get under people's skin in the most educated ways possible. I would like to see chael P. sonnen debate with the people's champ, the most electrifying superstar on television, The Rock.

If ya smellll what the chael is cookin.

Wasn't that in reference to Edgar.

Sonnen earned the title by accepting the fight on shirt notice or did everyone forget Jones ducked him.

That's fucking stupid.

That's stupid. Title fights should be earned by winning meaningful fights in the cage, period.

Frankie never talked his way into a title shot. He beat Bendo to get his shot. Just look at your own(Farmer) scorecard for that fight. You know the one where you mocked me only to get your own scores thrown in your face.

I corrected myself.

Edgar has zero wins at fw. He lost his last fight even though we don't agree with the judges.

I am 100% behind earning title shots. When the guys in front if Sonnen said no and got hurt while he said yes then why not reward the guy. Very understandable.

If I was match maker if given the shot to Gus, then Hendo if he beats Machida.

The only thing that is understandable is the UFC doesn't give a rats ass about legitimacy as long as they can lure casual dollars their way.

But you do realize Aldo's comments weren't directed at Edgar because Edgar did not talk his way into a title shot. Edgar is on many p4p list. Sonnen isn't on a single top 20 LHW list.
If we did a ranking on FW right now and included Frankie, he would be in the top 5 in every ballot. Sonnen wouldn't get a single vote in the top 10 at LHW.
But it makes far more sense for a former champion, moving down in weight, gets a title shot compared to a guy that was never Champion moving UP in weight getting a title shot.

That's mostly true too. Did y'all forget kimbo James toney and Lesner? This isn't news. Happens in every org.

Oh, I forgot about those, I guess Sonnen fighting for the LHW title is A-okay.
