Chael Sonnen to fight Forrest Griffin December 29th
http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mma-ca...4264--mma.html

Personally, I see Griffin taking this one. Griffin is much bigger than Sonnen and fights well off his back. I also don't see Sonnens "pillow punches" effecting Forrest all that much.

This is from the first time they fought back in 2003. Of course this was pre-TRT Sonnen, so Sonnen taps out real quick to a molasses slow triangle...

I'm probably being a tad hard on both of them because the truth is, I have respect for any fighter in every disipline who competes....However Griffin has too many wars under his belt, he's cooked as a top guy....Sonnen, with that retarded spinning elbow, looked way too amateurish to really be taken seriously, I mean what was the guy smoking that night??........The division needs new blood, these guys are on the downside, non factors in the division.

Sonnen's fights arent overly exciting, seeing as he's a pure wrestler and just lays on guys and ground and pounds out a win, but I love watch Forrest fight, you know when he's fighting that it's going to be a war.
