I had no idea Rashad had a brother in the fight game.
I bet Sonnen placed the first bid on that belt. Only way he can obtain a belt is by buying it lol
Actually Chael was the WEC Middleweight Champion….
Chael didnt technically win the WEC title, he beat the Paulo Filho but it wasnt a title fight because the champ came in over weight.
Actually Chael never won the WEC middleweight Title because that was a non title fight since Paulo Filho did not make weight
