@SonnenCH: Chael Sonnen Twitter Watch #1
Posted on June 12, 2011, 06:55 PM by Joey Santosus
Love him or hate him, there is no denying that Chael Sonnen has been blessed with the gift of gab.
Following Anderson Silva's puzzling performance against Demian Maia at UFC 112, the Middleweight champ's drawing power seemed to have hit an all time low and the announcement that he would next face a relatively unknown wrestler out of Oregon was only expected to compound the problem. That is, of course, until someone gave Sonnen access to a microphone.
It was the Team Quest fighter's ability to endlessly spew one-liners and hurl insults at everyone from Silva, to the Nogueira brothers, and anyone else associated with the champ (and some who weren't) that seemed to quickly make their title fight one of the most anticipated of the year. And while Sonnen may have left the Oracle Arena without the title that night, it hasn't slowed his pace one bit.
Anderson Silva still remains his favorite punch line, but he's since used Twitter to take aim at a plethora of others, whether it be fighters (all of which he says are "lazy"), popular culture (revealed the end of Hangover II), or entire nations (says Brazil was like "camping in Compton") Sonnen's library of one-liners are never ending.
With this in mind, from here on out LowKick.com will compile some of his best work for your viewing pleasure, starting with today's @SonnenCH: Chael Sonnen Twitter Watch #1

Yeah racism is funny Chael.
Doesn't this guy have other things to worry about?
the are a lot of trash talkers in mma(bisping,miller,etc..) but with the exception of crossing the line where you involved countries and culture i thik its enough already. im just impressed on sonnen cause he has a lot of flaws himself but he cant find ways to know one on its self. money laundering steroid user cheater
Look at the shot this guy takes at steven segal! Holy hypocrite.
Drinking pee may not be the best source of electrolytes, but atleast he's not all about putting his head in every brazilians lap he comes across in the cage, shortly before he pats their thigh.
haha that 'camping in compton' line was pure gold. how can anyone stay mad at this guy?
Stop acting like the fat chick in the club that gotta be loud to get attention
Actually no He has a lot of free time on his hands since he has been fired from all of his jobs!
Chael is getting old now....its kinda funny but hes really starting to come off a bit desperate now, trying too hard to stay relevant
agree maybe bordom hits him the most since its been a long time hes not in the lime light
Any of y'all that don't think some of his tweets are racist its because you're a bigot also, I would love to catch Chael in Vegas, you suckas can weak if you wanna I sets shit off
I never said anything about that cyclop one legged baby you & your sister conceived so leave me alone nazi
wow this guy again!... and he disrespecting brazil really hard on those tweets, this guy is a joke not all of brazil is bad he can talk shit like that when walking in the tourist spot, but he wont dare go into the favelas and talk that shit... this guy is going to get some fans is brazil pissed off and when UFC rio comes around his going to get his ass whoop by a random guy, crossing the line between being bitter he lost and now disrespecting a whole nation
Interesting face: All of his losses from 2007 to now are by Brazilians.
fact, not face
AND all by triangle choke :-D
the more he chirps silva and blackhouse the more pathetic he seems. he already lost to silva, got caught roiding and lost both his jobs..... hes a loser.
Lmao, you should tweet that comment to him and surely he will commit suicide once he realizes its true.
Chael gots lots of time to tweet....got nothing else to do right? Might as well get paid for it I guess.
I still like Chael!!! Hope he gets back soon because hes entertaining.
It never ceases to amuse me how all the Anderson fanboys are still pissed off at Chael. They say things like "Oh he's old news, he's a cheater, he lost".
If he really was that insignificant, you wouldn't take the time to comment on this, would you?
Chael fought Anderson 9 months ago and he's STILL getting in the heads of all the Silva fans. It's hilarious!
I'm amuse that you climbed off your cousin to type that sorry ass comment. Hope you trip & fall on your hero's dirty dope needle......fanboy that punk
Chael is a bad mother fcker, steroids or not
That comment about Karate was just dumb, Machida is a practitioner of Shotokan Karate and was a former champ, Chuck liddel is a practitioner of Kenpo Karate and is a former champ and finally GSP is a practitioner of Kyokushin Karate and is a current UFC champ.
You know, I stated earlier that I really wanted to get my hands on Mayweather Jr. but Chael Sonnen is on top my list.
Pillow Hands + Horrid Submission Defence - Steroids = Incompetent Overhyped Blowhard
Dana, no joke. If you're reading this, PLEASE give him to me. Make my wish come true.
i think people need to start taking chaels comment about as seriously as you would take news from the daily show with jon stewart . it is quite clear that he is just saying random B.S. in a attempt amuse some people piss off some others and garner attention for himself. from the way chael often contradicts himself i doubt he believes one word he is saying although it is possible that he is suffering from some sort of physcosis(which may require testosteroene therapy).
Actually, Jon Stewart is one of the few 'news' anchors you CAN trust for reliable news.
CNN is busy with youtube videos, FOX News is actually FOX Opinionated Entertainment and MSNBC is FOX News' ugly twin who nobody talks to.
Sonenn is apiece of shit. That's why he's not fighting. If he was to move up to 205... Oooweeeee that's fresh meat!!
i would love to see machida fight sonnen even tho the dragon wud knock him out...
I find it amazing that people are still gulled by Sonnen's schtick.
Everything that comes out of his mouth or thumbs, in this case, is calculated to provoke. As the Madison Avenue types say, there is no such thing as bad publicity.
Sonnen will only panic when fans start ignoring him.
Lol exactly, the guy is probably broke and just desperate to make waves. Fortunately for him even though he is not fighting as of now he still gets attention.
