Chael Sonnen responds to Jorge Masvidal’s statements about him

Verbal sparring in MMA can be as fierce as fighting inside the octagon. Chael Sonnen, famed for his razor-sharp wit and stinging words, recently argued with Jorge Masvidal. Masvidal called Sonnen a “dirty” fighter and called his credibility into doubt. He referred to Sonnen’s history of failed drug tests and expressed his support for Helwani.

Sonnen is probably the best trash-talker in the UFC. He was undeterred by Masvidal’s comments and swiftly responded with a series of snarky tweets. His tweets attacked Masvidal on his losses. Sonnen remarked that if Masvidal wanted to fight him, he would have first to defeat one of Sonnen’s “students,” referring to Colby Covington, who had previously defeated Masvidal at UFC 272.

Sonnen’s sharp wit and Masvidal’s brazen frankness had fight fans on the edge of their seats. This reminds everyone that the drama and excitement in MMA extend beyond physical fights and fight fans love it.
