Chael Sonnen: ‘I’m the best MMA wrestler in the world’

“He’s never been in there with a gangster before,” said Chael Sonnen of Jon Jones ahead of their showdown at UFC 159 on April 27, 2013. “He’s been in there with a bunch of little boys that were scared of him.”

“I’m the best MMA wrestler in the world. I can take Jon Jones down anytime I want to. I’m a two-time National Champion, I got a silver medal from the World Championships – that says I can take Jon Jones down. He’s never had an experience like this; there’s a reason he said no the first time.”

“I destoroyed Anderson; I ‘m gonna run through Jones.”
