So let me get this straight. I am “trying, (and failing) desperately to be a Chael Sonnen”?

Number one, I was talking shit on the internet before anyone had ever even heard of Chael Sonnen. I don’t need to copy anyone’s “act”. I’m also “failing” so badly that my youtube interview with Ariel Helwani has more views than any other fighter interview that was done that weekend.

And a thread created by Stefan Struve about photoshopping a pic of me has over 200,000 views and nearly 700 posts in roughly 30 hrs.

Number two, if anything Chael wishes he could be like me. The difference is I don’t use audience plants or scripted lines to do it. What you get with me is always original and off the top of my head. My entire pre-fight interview with Ariel Helwani (which was much funnier than anything Chael has ever done) was all done without me knowing what questions to expect, and without me having any planned responses.

Lastly, if you want to hang around this business for very long, you might want to watch yourself before you get Tomas Rios’d.

PS: Your first name is missing a “w” and your last name fucking sucks. Love ya 😉
