|  Sonnen: TRT is good, Rampage is a crybaby
Sonnen: TRT is good, Rampage is a crybaby  Quote:
Chael Sonnen just made an appearance on the new Spike TV's new "MMA Uncensored Live" with hosts Craig Carton, Mike Straka and Nate Quarry. Excerpts appear below.
On Rampage
Quote: |
"I like him. Look, he's a crybaby, but I find it entertaining. I like it when he goes on his campaigns about entitlement and how he should be given easy fights. I don't agree with any of it, but, you gotta understand, everybody's gonna stumble, at times, but to miss weight at a fight poorly, when you're paid what he's paid -- he's the second highest paid fighter in the industry now that Brock Lesnar is retired -- it kind of puts him in a different ballpark. A lot of things are expected of him and he's not quite delivering. But as far as retirement talk, the guy ought to be able to have a bad performance here and there. Randy Couture, the greatest of all time, had bad performances, but he always came back."
| On TRT
Quote: |
"There's two things there. Hold on. If you're gonna associate the guy with TRT, make sure you also associate the fact that it's legal and it's not banned. Second thing with TRT is people are really getting confused. They look at TRT and they're missing the stuff that really is good. TRT is eight, nine or ten on the list of things they could take to help their careers. Secondly, any time a person says 'performance enhancer,' stop talking to them, because they don't have the intellect to debate with you."
| Carton interjected and challenged Sonnen to say he was not using PEDs.
Quote: |
"I wanna make this point. I would never take anything if I didn't think it would help my performance. That's what medicine is in 21st Century America. Imagine if you go to the doctor and say, 'Doc, I'm feeling great. You got anything that can bring me down a notch?' That's malpractice. It's all meant to help your performance."
| Carton accuses Sonnen of taking testosterone right before his UFC 117 fight with Anderson Silva.
Quote: |
"No, no, no. Absolutely not. Not only did I not take more of it, I was never even accused of that. Josh Gross, who's incompetent beyond measure, went on ESPN and said that I did, so it became my reality and I went with it. I was never even accused of that. Is it legal or is it not legal? If a person's taking a legal substance, that's the end of the conversation. You're sounding a lot like Josh Gross."
| On the rematch with Anderson Silva.
Quote:
"Couple of things: First off, I don't even know if I have that fight. I'm telling people I do. I'm reading about it in the media. I don't have an agreement for that bout. And, second off, I'm gonna start in April. So, we haven't even begun yet."
"Listen, here's the deal with Anderson. My beef isn't so much with him, it's with everybody else. I get real sick and tired of seeing guys in the back asking him for his autograph with him, and then when they get on camera themselves, they portray themselves like they're tough guys. If you put a microphone in somebody's face, and he calls out anybody other than the champion, he might as well just turn in his pink slip. If you're not here to be the best, get to the end of the line. You don't belong. I'm not sidestepping this guy or anybody else. You know, any time someone publicly slaps Dana White in the face, publicly spits on Lorenzo Ferttita, I don't understand that. When Anderson comes out and he publicly says, 'I disagree with you' to the decision makers, the guys who put the process in place, who say, 'Here's how we're gonna determine a number one contender,' tells these guys he's got a better idea of their business than they do, I don't really understand that. So, that's not really a slight at me when Anderson says that, but he is telling his bosses that he disagrees with them."

Funny thing is that this guy talks so much no sense and is a pro Troll, however most of the people in this forum bash Anderson and Rampage for their comments lol

When are they going to make this bout official? Feels like we haven't seen Anderson in ages. I know he had that shoulder bursitis (?) and what not, but he didn't even get touched in the Okami fight.
Chael Sonnen is a professional at not only trash talk, but also comebacks. You have to be quit witted to win a mouthing war with him. Say what you will about the guy, but he is definitely good with his trash talk. Could you imagine knowing him at age 15? Would have been hilarious.

Difference in Rampage any ANY fighter out there is that as Chael said, Rampage complains because he doesn't get easy fights, which is the real reason he wants out of the UFC. He complains about not wanting to fight wrestlers yet Machida and Forrest were not wrestlers and they beat him too. The other difference is just as Chael pointed out that Rampage is one of the highest paid (not sure if he is legitimately the 2nd highest paid but I wouldn't be surprised) where as many fighters don't make a fraction of what Rampage makes and they show up ready and excited to fight. Not to mention Rampages all around lack of care for the sport and the slackness of showing up overweight.
And no, Rampage is not Randy Coture. That was a bad comparison by Chael. Randy loves mma. Rampage loves Rampage.
