“Stench and Chael Sonnen. Wow. This is very interesting. I have all my mind on Chael. Fedor is great and amazing and I respect [him], but I believe Chael will win,” said Spider.
Anderson Silva also considers his first fight with Chael Sonnen a submission triumph in July 2010, the biggest win of his career.
“This is an incredible fight because Chael beat me for five rounds, and the last [round] I ended up choking Chael. This is the biggest one of my life and the biggest memory for me, mainly because Chael is a good fighter and a good wrestler, so for me it's an incredible fight in the UFC. I have others, but this is really incredible,” Anderson recalled.
