(Props: 4z4r3th via Willin. Fight starts at the 1:09 mark.)
In his 12 fights under the UFC and WEC banners, Chael Sonnen has won seven fights by unanimous decision and lost the rest by triangle choke or triangle/armbar. You have to respect that level of consistency. But believe it or not, the mouthy middleweight also has ten stoppage victories on his record from appearances in non-Zuffa promotions.
Exhibit A: Sonnen once grappled the shit out of fellow WEC/UFC vet Tim McKenzie at a Bodog Fight event in February 2007, scoring a takedown and sinking a brabo choke in just 13 seconds. Even Royce Gracie himself was giving Chael props after the performance. (And hey, nice pull with that Asian girlfriend, buddy!)

commentsChael Sonnen confirmed for Yellow Fever.
I read a lot about Chael being a racist, yet I hear he trains all the time with Okami & in that video above, his GF seems of the Asian persuasion...
Are people just too trigger-happy to toss the word "racist" around?
