Stephan Bonnar loses Soszynski appeal
Posted on March 10, 2010, 11:02 AM by Rory KernaghanStephan Bonnar and Krzystztof Soszynski met at UFC 110 in Sydney last month in a light heavyweight match up. The fight was stopped due to a cut obtained by Bonnar during a clash of heads but Bonnar had to suffer a loss as Soszynski was handed the TKO victory. Bonnar has since appealed to the NSW commission and news has now arrived that the appeal was denied and the fight remains a TKO loss for Bonnar.
Bonnar had this to say on the situation: 'It was obviously a battle between me and (the NSW commission), but as far as the fight, Dana White's a fair guy, and I'm pretty confident we'll have that rematch soon.'
Bonnar who is well known for his heart and determination, such as in the Ultimate Fighter 1 Finale battle against Forrest Griffin, is hopeful that he will get the rematch and it seems now that he will be appearing again on TUF this time on the card of the season 11 finale in Las Vegas June 19th. After dismal shows against Jon Jones and Mark Coleman, Bonnar will look to get his career back on track in this rematch. The setting ironically will be back where his career took off, The Ultimate Fighter show.

i like bonner i hate forrest. now weakl my comment forrest nut huggers,!!!!!!!forest became a woman after silva made him run
Bonnar can't catch a break. When was the last time he won a fight?
why did they deny the appeal? are they blind? Evidence was clear. An accidental headbutt that busted his head open.
ya i no, this is stupid, the fight should hve been a draw or no contest
Really sad it was an awesome fight up until the cut stoppage. I want a rematch
Cause Bonner sucks anyway. It's not like he'll ever be a champion. In fact, I see him get his ass kicked most of the time...
Are u in the UFC?? I thought so dont talk shit about the fighters
If i were locked in a room with Bonner and 2 werewolves and i had a gun with 2 silver bullets i would shoot Bonner........Twice!!
i hate that wimp
i dont like Bonnar or Forest,but i do like Krzystztof and his good kimuras...the fight of Forest and Bonnar from TUF 1 was a damn good fight other then that i love to see Forest get his ass beat all the time, hes a little ****in cry baby!!!!
FREAKSHOW
Yeah, he should fight somebody good, like HMC or zulu or Hershel Walker or lashley.
i dont like bonnar ....but this is ****ing unfair!!! dont think the commision would make the same decision with a more popular fighter like machida,silva,gsp or bj penn!!!!
This is quite outrageous really, there should be no question that this was a no contest.
It was a no-contest, quite obviously.
I don't like bonner, but I still think that is some unfair bullshit. Pisses me off!
Easy now.... calm down there Gampon. Sorry, I meant Gohan, no one want you to go all super saiyan on them now.
I am not a huge Bonnar fan. but I do think it is shit what happened. the obvious call was NC.
