    It took only a few hours until the former UFC Middleweight Title contender Chael Sonnen went guns blazing on Wanderlei Silva via Twitter, following Axe Murderer's claim that he "killed" Chael Sonnen during sparring at the Xtreme Couture Gym. Sonnen released no less than 7 tweets, blasting the PRIDE and UFC legend from different angles. The two were rumored to be announced as coaches for the upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter, which was recently denied by the UFC President Dana White, according to various media sources.

    Chael Sonnen is currently on a 6-months suspension following a failed PED test after a bout against Anderson Silva at UFC 117. Before "Sonnengate", the Oregonian was promised a rematch against Anderson Silva at UFC 126, but instead, The Spider will put his belt on the line against Vitor "The Phenom" Belfort.

    I was never the biggest fan of Sonnen's trash talk, but the tweets aren't that funny.

    I'd rather see him post something about kicking his ass, rather than this.

    This whole twitter thing is pure ***gotry. I doubt very much Wandy gives two shits about some stupid ****ing "Tweets". They can settle matters in the cage. This needs to be under Vale Tudo rules. So i can see Wandy headbutt Sonnen's head into salami paste.

    Exactly but it will come back on him fight night. When Wanderlei stares a hole threw Sonnen's ugly face then blast his knees right through that hole maybe then Sonnen will finally STFU.

    As much as I hate to say it, if Silva and Sonnen were to fight, I think Sonnen would ground and pound Silva out in the first round.

    Silva is no where near the fighter he was in Pride.

    Or come fight night he will beat the crap out of Wand like he did Nate,Okami and Anderson, do you think Wand can stop his TD's and having Sonnen punch holes in his new joker face? Sonnen would kill Wand! Wand barely beat Bisping.

    Sonnen on the juice is a pretty good fighter he might beat Wanderlei.


    But his smack talk is just plain stupid, he seems to have no respect for anybody and likes to insult brazilians particularly which I find disturbing.

    He isnt a good smack talker because all he does is make you want him to catch the beatdown he knows he deserves and will receive.

    I think people are over-hyping him a bit.

    No I dont think he can stop Sonnen's takedowns just like I doubt Sonnen could prevent Wanderlei from tapping him out as his submission defense is just that bad. Who does Sonnen ever kill ? Its takedown, alittle GNP that never even comes close to finishing a guy and repeat that a handful of times. Wow he beat the crap out of Anderson last I check Anderson wasnt the one tapping to a loose Armbar/Triangle.

    Ive never seen a guy talk so much ****, dont back up and lose but gain so many fans and respect. Its oh I broke Anderson's will well didnt he tap ? Lance Armstrong deserved cancer for doing steroids then Sonnen test positive.

    BTW barely beating someone is like Sherk beating Dunham or something like that. Wand-Bisping round 1 was close, round 2 Wand landed all the effective shots and nearly choked Bisping out with that Guillotine, round 3 he basically Bisping the **** out but time ended 3 more secounds and its TKO.

    Bigger then Serra BEATING GSP ? Bigger then Werdum BEATING Fedor. Plenty of guys have took Anderson Silva down and landed some GNP only difference here was Sonnen did it for a longer period of time. If they ever fight agian and he wins ill post a video of me eating my own **** literally.
