Media Bet the house on Ankalaev

Yeah it's a bit. He says names wrong, everyone comments on his YouTube channel on how he said the name wrong. His channel gets massive interaction, YouTube recommends his videos, the channel grows and he makes more money.

1 - Sonnen deliberately keeps butchering Poatan's name. He has been doing it for a long time and I am 100% sure he does it deliberately despite having heard his name like a bazillion times.

2 - Sonnen has a track record of ALWAYS pick the wrong winner. Bet the house on Ankalaev.



Nope
 
I just hope Alex wins so Sherdogistan doesn't run wild again in here like when Khamzat won.


Poatan's ego is out of control. He is deluding himself. Claims 'some random girl told him' Ankalaev was hiding from him LOL So let me get this straight. Big Ank beat him comfortably, but some random girl said he was scared to face Poatan outside the Octagon? Hilarious.

He has become what Adesanya was, when Poatan beat Adesanya and humbled him. Never thought I would dislike Poatan's ego the same exact way I rooted for Poatan just to have Adesanya humbled. Poatan has become a carricature of himself the same way. He has started buying into his own hype thinking of himself as this mythical creature who transcends humanity perpetuated by the whole Chama thing.

He never once credited Big Ank for anything since the loss. He did not even admit Big Ank brought a good fight, even if he believes he lost unfairly. From claiming the fact that he thought he won to the litany of excuses that are ever changing since he lost, are just insufferable. Not the least of which, he was saved by the bell in round 2, which he always conveniently ignores. He needs to be humbled once and for all.

i'm not a gamblin man, and i want alex to win sorta. But between this and him hanging out with that flat earther nina. Yea, i don't see how he's gonna win.
 
I’m more shocked that any of you are still listening to Shael… I stopped years ago! It just doesn’t make sense - his monologues are all over the place, and his way of breaking down a fight, along with his comparisons and conclusions, just don’t make sense.

To give an example that isn’t based on a real video of his but rather how I perceive his predictions: he’ll open with a catchphrase like “Jon ‘Bones’ Jones is the best MMA fighter of all time.” Then he’ll suddenly jump to Michael Phelps, spend seven minutes talking about Phelps’ diet and toilet routine, and why that makes him the best swimmer of all time. Finally, he’ll wrap it all up in 2 sentences with some vague theory that Jones apparently eats the same cornflakes and follows the same bathroom schedule, and therefore Jones would beat Aspinall. Like… no sense at all. (And no, I didn’t forget any details - that was on purpose, because Chael makes no sense.)​

Chael probably puts the milk in first in his cereal

Chael Sonnen is a generational bullshitter. This man can talk for an hour and say nothing. He really internalized the show business aspect of prize fighting. Zero authenticity, zero honesty. It's a real shame because he's an OG with a unique perspective since he literally fought just about everybody (Anderson, Fedor, Jones, Wanderlei) and trained with the best. Total waste of credibility and potential insight.
 
And yet Fathead was the one hyping up all of the guys Alex ended up knocking out <lol>
Fathead would send Alex farther into the nether realm than Izzy did. I like Alex though, so he should avoid HW at all costs. Don't move up and get body bagged.
