Say goodbye to the rematch for at least 12 months, thats the shortest suspension that will be handed out.
He shouldn't get a rematch, right? He lost, while cheating? He should be out of the title picture indefinitely.
Hahaha!
Is this the same guy that said Lance Armstrong gave himself cancer? :(
What a douche. Bet he feels pretty stupid right about now... on a side note, anyone know what he tested positive for?
I dont think he should be able to get a rematch. I also think its funny how he can talk all that smack and still lose while cheating!
i heard it was some sort of flu medicine... you all need to stop making assumptions cuz no one knows what it is for sure... if this was karo parisyan we wouldnt be having this same conversation cuz he has an anxiety disorder but you are all jumping to conclusions about sonnen using steroids when no one even knows what it is yet for sure
Nah man, that was some dude with a hispanic accent.Quote:

If he did or if he didn't, it just goes to show you that PED's don't help against jiu-jitsu :)
that sucks for sonnen i really started liking him after he beat silva down for 4 1/2 rds.... now hes probably gettin kicked out of the ufc
Do we need a spelling lesson at the next class?? ;)Quote:

It could be any number of things, and I dont see why he would get kicked out of the UFC, other fighters have taken them and WON the title (Sherk comes to mind right away), and still stayed on, barring a suspension of course.
i just think its funny people think greg savage is an investigative reporter.
“[Sonnen] received his notice yesterday,” Dodd told Sherdog.com shortly after the Shane Mosley-Sergio Mora boxing match ended Saturday night in Los Angeles
thats the only quote he has from anyone who has a clue about anything. hardly incriminating he does't even say drug
"Text messages to Sonnen went unreturned."
hes out cheating on you greg
At least 60% of all pro athletes in any sport use performance enhancing drugs. It can not and will not be stopped. I personally do not care at all if he was roided out of his mind. It was one hell of an entertaining fight. Fighters will always find a way to cheat, it is human nature. Testing will never stop that. *Cough GSP Cough* I want to see Chael get re-match asap.
I've been swept by guys that are weaker then me, you being a brown belt should know that strength isn't everything.Quote:

I'm the head instructor, small school but growing, And every new person says I'm the only one teaching Traditional & 10th planet Mixed, Cool, I guess no one else is interested in 10th planet they seem to be against it. And yes we have a Nogueira offiliate, not the actual nogueira's in Tulsa, Daniel Valverde was the instructor there but he went back to Florida. Good school either way, but kind of expensive, and no 10th planet.
Rogan says Marquardt is next in line. I don't want to see that shit.
Marquart vs Okami would be lovely and give Vitor the shot honestly i was thinking if Silva got passed Sonnen a second time he should retire now i dont know.
Nate Marquardt deserves the title shot. He did really well at fight night last week and there's not really another middleweight stand out that comes to mind that deserves a title shot

Sonnen tested positive for natural roid
haha! Right, right, I forgot.. :)Quote:

How do you think these guys are keeping their bodies together training 5-8 hours a day for 5 or more days a week? How do you think fighters are developing severe tendon injuries that you'd usually see on a veteran kick boxer within 4 years of training? How are dude's making it into the TUF house with only 3 years of MMA training and not looking like noobs in the cage?
So I think it's all kind of nonsense. I mean technically it's only cheating to be using PEDs within the sanctioned time range building up to the fight but even off of the PEDs you can't erase someone's mat time that they exploited with the aid of PEDs. Unless they want to test active and inactive fighters year around there's really no functional point to any of this.
Fucking shame. It was a great fight and now its tainted. Even IF he's innocent he'll be remembered as a roider ala Sean Sherk. Watch out for ball cancer Chael! Or maybe it wasn't him. Maybe it was some hispanic fella
3rdeye, I couldnt have said it better myself. These guys are going in their and getting punched in the face repeatedly! They obviously don't care about their health in the long run. So with that in mind, let them take steroids. I would love to see two freaks of nature kicking the shit out of each other full force for the entire fight! And plus NO MATTER HOW MANY ROIDS YOU TAKE, YOU CAN STILL BE KNOCKED OR CHOKED OUT! It's harder but if you're a fighter you should love beating the crap out of roid heads, especially if you aren't juicing. ROID RAGE!!!
you know PED'S can't make you an ultimate fighter......nor can it make you hit a 90 mile an hour fast ball......or catch a pass from an NFL quarter back! there has to be something to "enhance" in the first place! that's why there called "performance enhancing drugs" pro sports across the board has become science and athletics.... pure talent will not take you to the top any more!! just my humble opinion anyway
I just heard that Chael Sonnen admitted to taking steroids prior to UFC 117, but hte worst part is that the Athletic Commission already knew that he was taking it therefore making it a completely unfair advantage against Silva. I think this just prove how beast Anderson Silva is. A guy cheats and Silva still comes out on top.

Stupid for a few reasons.
1. The UFC knows/knew what goes on.
2. Josh got busted before the Fedor fight, why wasn't Sonnen?
3. Roids=entertainment, and I pay my $60, I don't stream.
also I want to throat fuck Jim Rome.

WOW!!! i actually thought he had a chance in the rematch but i guess we wont know for a while and thats if he still gets a rematch after the suspension.
