One week before UFC 117, which happens on August 7 in Oakland, in California, all the lights are turned to the card which has five Brazilians. Between one training session and another, Demian Maia talked to TATAME and analyzed the confrontation between the champion Anderson Silva, who beat him on UFC 112 in Abu Dhabi, and Chael Sonnen, who has been submitted by Demian with a triangle. Demian guaranteed that Sonnen has chances and revealed he cheers for the American. He has chances of winning, the fight will be easier for Anderson, but he can beat him. If I had to chose, I’d cheer for Sonnen, making an exception because I always want the Brazilians to win, but this time I have to be at Sonnen’s side, because I don’t admire the other one, explained the black belt.
