Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen will go face to face again, this time as part of the official weigh-in procedure ahead of tomorrow's stacked UFC fight card. Last time Sonnen and Silva got in staredown, the Brazilian needed to be physically restrained. Today, the tension between Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen is expected to hit new heights.

Chael Sonnen mentioned on several occasions that he has 20lbs to cut in 24hrs, claiming that he’s going to be in “great discomfort” prior to stepping on the scales at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.

First fighter is expected to hit the scales at 7PM EST. Live Stream will be available here, on LowKick.com.

    At first I thought you might be a foreigner but now I am thinking that you are Bruce Lee or maybe Hunter B. He has a lot of time right now.

    Choke - I can assure you he isn't me. I TRY to be funny. DG isn't funny at all. To me the language sounds more like Brasil. The only other guy on this site who doesn't seem to care how people rank him or what people think is Hateocracy. Hate either has very strong self esteem or he doesn't look back to see what people thought of his comments.

    I am hoping that this huuuuge weight cut that sonnen has to undergo doesn't take away from the fight, such big cuts through dehydration often leave fighters sluggish and tired, chaels style of fighting is to grind n grind some more, if his stamina takes a hit because of huge last minute weight cutting, it could really take away from the promise of this fight.

    Yeah, I hope Dolce wasn't responsible for Sonnen's stamina in the Bisping fight.

    this isnt Cahel's first weight cut....

    He does this all the time...

    Silva doesnt have the power to knock out Chael.

    Its hard to call the fight from evaluating the last one. Chael kicked his ass and got caught on the last 30seconds. The only reasonable conclusion is that Chael will kick his ass again and eother get caught or not....

    This weight cut story is fake, I mean after all the bull shit Sonnen has spout off, you really think he is telling the truth here. NO. It is a tactic for him to tout himself even higher if he beats Silva. Perhaps have an excuse if he loses. Come on people.

    Its a fair point, i never thought of it that way, i have also been thinking about how much sh.it he has said the last 2 years, everyone is saying he has got in silvas head and its gonna effect how he fights, (even GSP is saying this) however, the amount of sh.it sonnen has spoken has become sooo huge and such apart of his personality that if he does not back it up, even if he loses he has to put up a big fight, with what he did last time almost defeating the immortal silva he has to go one step further, he has put himself under huge amounts of pressure and i wanna see how he handles it. Its not like he has just said, i believe i am a better fighter than silva and by July 7th i will be champ....he has really put his foot in it....

    Exactly! Geez everyone is like aw come on man you don't have to hate Sonnen.... it's just an act guys. Then he comes out and says he has to cut at least 20 lbs in 24 hrs?! I'm sure it could be done but who really knows with this guy. I'm starting to question the whole father story and everything else. The guy is probably a really nice guy off camera but it's hard to tell what's real with Sonnen. I just tend to discredit everything when it comes to people like him. Damn. I really just like to watch the fights and I don't understand the people around here who really get enjoyment out of the drama and show.

    Dude, the guy was a crooked real estate agent and a republican politician. He is not a nice guy. He is putting on an act and most of what he says comes out of his arse but the bad guy aspect of the persona is real. This dude would sell his mom to the murahaleen.

    Yeah SIlva's secret gameplan was to knock Sonnen out when he wasn't ready at the weigh ins, wonder if Silva shows up tomorrow now.

    KF:



    I know they are in different weight classes, but I would have loved to see Silva shoullder strike someone like rampage jackson at a weigh in. Sonnen acted as if nothing happened but you could tell he was pissed.

    Chael looked exhausted during the weigh-in. Dolce helped him manage the weight cut, it'll be interesting to see how much energy he has tomorrow...

    Too bad about the video problems during Cung Le's weigh-in, he was one of the guys who's conditioning I wanted to have a look at.

    You know, I considered being more careful with my wording to avoid people making "homo" jokes, but then I thought "dumb juvenile jokes on the internet, that 'll never happen.

    Its hard to knock a guy out with a punch to the ass. Try a head strike.
