Chael Sonnen vs. Ciryl Gane
Conversation between Chael Sonnen and Ciryl Gane
“If Ciryl comes out of this match with the world championship, Ciryl does not become the greatest heavyweight phenomenon out there, Jon Jones does.- Chael Sonnen, via his YouTube channel”
“And that’s the thing that we left without. I mean, if I’m in Tom’s shoes, everything is possible right now, including denying the rematch. So, [Gane's] a cheater. He cheated multiple times. I wanted to fight him. I wanted to give him an opportunity. I’ve done all of those things. I’m moving on. I don’t fight guys that are cheaters. Now, I understand that match is still going to get made. I’m talking about you from a storyline perspective, and we have to go redo it. We have no choice -shot fire at Ciryl Gane after UFC 321 eye poke incident via his YT Channel”
“It wasn’t an eye poke. It was a double eye poke. It wasn’t one finger went knuckle deep. Two fingers. Slow it down. Both of them go knuckle deep. And in that regard, I don’t love the idea of unintentional. I do believe that’s the rule, and I believe the rule was properly followed. I’m not giving Jason Herzog a hard time, but I’m opening the door to it, particularly for the future. We’ve got two constants as far as the rules go from 1993 till now. Don’t bite the guy. Don’t poke the son of a bi*ch in his eyes. Those are the two rules. So when one of them is violated, it’s very frustrating when somebody can go out and grab the fabric, grab the shorts, and a warning happens -shot fire at Ciryl Gane after UFC 321 eye poke incident via his YT Channel”
