OUInsider - Owen Field

It will definitely be interesting because what Sonnen has said, that he would retire if he loses. I still see Silva beating the mess out of him and not doing it quick.

Did you watch the first fight? Silva got destroyed for 4.5 rounds. Had Sonnen not slipped up for a second, he was going to win. No one will dispute that.

Sonnen runs his mouth to build interest. I think its quite humorous because the public is buying in on his gimmick. They either want to see him lose or win. The guy is smart. He made you form an opinion of him, so it must be working. Hell, I like him cause he is playing the public.

It will be a good fight. I will pull for the brash abrasive american.

I think it'll be a war. Sonnen is going to beat on Silva for a round or so(maybe two or three), but Silva won't get it as bad as he did the first fight. Third or fourth round, we see some wild move by Silva and Sonnen falls like a tree to the mat out cold. Thinking either spinning elbow to the jaw or some crazy kick that Sonnen sees way too late.

Exactly!! Quite possibly some of the greatest quotes I have heard. He has the verbal skills of Muhammad Ali.

Watch his interviews with Dan Lebatard and they are a riot. Sonnen can go in and out of character in the blink of an eye and is very well spoken and thought out when he does.

He is a freaking hoot and te joke is on us! Just hope the fight is as good as his talk.

Bingo! Silva came in to the fight injured. Sonnen was on PEDS and still is, to a smaller degree. He has low T and has been given leniency in taking Testosterone. He is within limits, which is more than Allistair Overeem can say.

Better yet, he knows he gave his all last time, and it wasn't good enough. He has officially pissed off the pound for pound best fighter in the past 20 years. Silva in the 2nd by Referee stoppage

Sonnen passed his guard all night and took him down, damn near every time. Sonnen even said himself the lack of resistance was amazing. I have a lot of money on Silva but i hope Sonnen puts him out of the UFC for good. I can't stand Silva. I urge everyone to watch Sonnens interview with Dan LeBatard. It's hilarious.

He may bow but he's the most disrespectful fighter in the ufc and does absolutely nothing for the ufc. He ignores his few fans and I personally lost all respect for him after the Forest Griffin fight. He was obviously superior and just toyed with Griffin all night, laughing at Him, refusing to put him away just out of disrespect. Then watch his antics during the weigh in, he's a punk. Sonnen talks a lot of trash but he's a fun character and plays to his fans and genuinely cares about the ufc. There's a reason Dana White loves Sonnen and hates, and despises Silva.

No? I don't like him because he's disrespectful and toys with fighters. Also the fact he does nothing for the ufc, as far as promoting. Watch the weigh in, he's a punk.

I mean, he was just holding Sonnen up to hit him. Sonnen fell like a sissy. He didnt even get hit good.....LOL. That dude is a chump.

Stop whinning. The knee was legal. They showed it hit him in the gut, not the face. That chump was roided up last fight and that didnt help him this time. He didnt hang with anything tonight. At the end of the fight, Silva gave the guy some props. Perhaps he rubbed it in a little bit with the BBQ invite, but hey, he took a lot from Sonnen before the fight, you can give a little back.

That spinning back fist did miss and he did fall, but Silva walked over to him. He had time to get up. Now, he fell the second time on a glancing right hand. Sonnen gave some people hope, but he isnt elite. Decent ground game guy, but not too good otherwise.

He was outclassed. It was OU vs UTEP outclassed.
