Who got used to the provocative profile of Chael Sonnen was surprised by the mild tone adopted by the North American after the defeat to Rashad evans at UFC 167. At the event's press conference, Sonnen admitted that he was unquestionably defeated by Evans, who is his friend and companion on Ultimate shows on North American TV.
