There is still some time between now and UFC 112, you think Sonnen would take the fight?

Sonnen is suspended until early March. Maybe Rob can clarify, but I believe that means no fully contact training. That would give him a month to train for Anderson. He'd probably take it, but I'd want a full camp to prepare for Anderson

son of a fucking bitch whore damn shitfaced cocksucking sone of a BITCH!


Damn that sucks donkey dick.

Do they pull Silva off the card (if the injury isn't too serious) or put someone in a non-title fight?

I doubt Sonnen will be ready in about eight weeks, he was beat to hell plus he has a medical suspension from the show.

Chael Sonnen: Suspended until March 24 with no contact until March 9 due to forehead and nasal-bridge lacerations

I would have paid for that fight.

I have no clue where they go from here.

That pretty much blows that card to hell...pull Anderson and move it to Fight Night IMO cuz Sonnen wont be ready and theres no one else to put in front of him unless they give him another 205 matchup like Lil Nog

Lil Nog has a fight against Forrest coming up

112 already has Penn-Edgar, does it not? Does it really need a 2nd title fight? Its the Abu Dhabi event, so its going to have the same time-change issues as the shows in Britain.

[SHOGUN]

I'm sure Dana will scrounge up a can or two at 205 for Andy.

After a big win at UFC 109, middleweight Chael Sonnen turned his attention to his other career, politics. He made an appearance on "Fox and Friends" this morning on Fox News to kickstart his run for Oregon house. The campaign is a huge undertaking that Sonnen said will take a minimum of $400,000 to execute. It'll be time consuming and Sonnen's MMA training has to take a back seat. Or will it? That may have changed this afternoon.

Sonnen may have a conundrum on his hands -- continue his run for office or take on UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva, the opponent he's been chasing for years. Silva and the UFC learned today that Vitor Belfort is injured and out of UFC 112.

Anderson Silva will be fighting Keith Jardine instead. Book it.
