I hope so !!! Sonnen going get smashed lol
Hope so, because I think Munoz will beat that ass, and I’d love to see Sonnen get POUNDED! But then again, if anybody but Silva beats him, I’m pretty sure he’ll still continue on with all that bs about how he really beat him, so maybe it’s best that Silva gets him next so he can shut him the hell up.

that sukks for shogun.. he took a beating and kept on fighting like a beast! bad ass fight
I love this site I noticed that its very unbiased even when it comes to bj like mmafighting put out a report yesterday saying that shogun was fine which obviously simply isnt true its like there all for shogun in every report thanks for giving good facts
2 amazing fighters for sure. Shogun looks a little gang raped in this picture though; just sayin’.
…just sayin….
…no offense to those of you who have been gang raped.
Facial and skull fractures,damn Hendo hits hard,Shogun should take a page outta GSP”s smart fighter 101,with knees like Shoguns and carrying those extra calories,and gassing out to a fighter 12 years your elder….sounds like a recipe for a smashed mellon!
pretty sure anyone (including your boy toy GSP) would gas out after getting punched that many times by Hendo. that was an all-out war!
I thought your name was Krafty,thats my point Georges wouldn’t have ate all those Hendo sandwiches,but he’d have Hendo panting like a dog going into the championship rounds!
the best!
