Chael Sonnen vs. Wilson Gouveia Added to UFC 102
The rumored late August card for UFC 102 is beginning to fill out. Another fight has now been rumored for the card, a middleweight tilt between Chael Sonnen and Wilson Gouveia. Though the bout has yet to be made official, MMAWeekly says that sources close to the fight have confirmed it.
This bout joins the already rumored Couture vs. Nougeira and Junior dos Santos vs. Justin McCully, and is expected to take place in Portland, Oregon on August 29th. Both fighters will be looking to get back on track after suffering defeat in their last outings at UFC 95. Sonnen was last defeated in his UFC debut by Demian Maia via triangle choke in the first round of their bout. Gouveia suffered a TKO loss at the hands (and feet) of Nate Marquardt in the third round of that fight.

I actually dislike both fighter (sonnen makes way too many excuses and wilson just has a cockyness about him that bothers me somewhat) but I’m gonna go with sonnen UD.
Gouveia should win this bout and then Sonnen can make excuses all he wants, cuz remember he is better than Anderson Silva
Oh yea haha I totally forgot about that… Dang how did i let that slip my mind…
Gouveia has better striking than Sonnen. I don’t care who wins this fight, but i am a Sonnen fan, Gouveia is an ok fighter, i don’t see him getting any better than what he is now despite who he fights or how much he wins
Sonnen needs to stop making excuses and start winning.
LOL… stop whining and start winning
seriously tho he always has an excuse about his “losses” and never does anything about evolving his game, weird..
Chael Sonnen 21~10~1
Notable wins~ Paulo Filho, Baker, Trevor Prangley, Alex Stiebling, Jason Lambert, Mayhem Miller (Chael’s first MMA fight and Mayhem’s 4th, Sonnen won by Decision)
Notable losses~ Demian Maia, Paulo Filho, Horn (3x), Babalu, Terry Martin, Forrest Griffin, Trevor Prangley
The only thing that Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen have in commen is they both have beaten Alex Stiebling, cuz Anderson beat Jeremey Horn in one try……….. douche
Sonnen beat Filho only when Filho was in his zombie fighting mode. He wasn’t the same guy that he was the first time he beat Sonnen.
It still was a W, I know that Filho wasn’t the same but if goes in the record as a win then it is what it is, kinda like Fedor isn’t undefeated
