UFC 148 Video: The American Gangster

In some incredibly hilarious pre-fight hype courtesy of UFC.com, Middlweight title contender Chael Sonnen sounds off on the why he was not afraid to go to Brazil as public enemy number-one. That reason is his “rough” upbringing on the streets of West Linn, Oregon, where he was subject to such atrocites as littering and jaywalking. He even had to endure more than one year where his father barlely made $100,000, and was permanently scarred by his twin neighbors having to share a Mercedes. Describing the environment as “chaos” and “anarchy,” this could be one of the funniest Chael Sonnen tirades ever shown, and there is certainly no shortage. Like him or not, Chael P. Sonnen is one of the most outspoken, humorous athletes in all of sports today. Sonnen’s mainstream exposure will increase exponentially on Saturday if he can find a way to beat legendary champion Anderson Silva.
