Over the years I went from not liking Sonnen to loving him. He’s just an actor. He’s more full of shit than Dana believe it or not but at least he’s an entertainer. That’s all he’s ever been. He was never even a B level fighter imo because he tested positive 3 times during the prime of his career not to mention he was on trt as well. Even when he says something that hits home and sounds true and humble, he’s just trying to entertain. When he beat Shogun he said ‘Shogun won’t say it but I’ll say it for him, I got lucky’. So many people thought he was being humble and respectful yet he was only saying that to win the big fan base of Shogun. Even with Wanderlei running from the test, he said on the Rogan podcast that Wand never told his side and what really happened was usada showed up with no id and wanted to see wand’s dick piss in a cup and Wand said fuck that. That’s all bs. Sonnen is just an entertainer, a great one, and he knows how to work people at the right time. He always knows exactly what to say. Trash Brazil, then go a different route later. He knows what’s up when it comes to money. That’s how he got the fight with Jon Jones. So many other examples of the bs he’s pulled but you have to respect in a way of where he’s coming from.
