Over the course of his well-traveled career, Chael Sonnen has fought many of the best middleweights and light heavyweights of all-time, and now he has faced what he considers to be the greatest heavyweight ever.
The 41 year-old competing for Bellator MMA was drafted into Bellator’s Heavyweight Grand Prix. While he had success against his first opponent, fellow former 205-pounder Quinton Jackson, in a quarterfinal match up, he wasn’t so successful in the semi-final when he ran into former Pride Fighting Championships heavyweight king Fedor Emelianenko at Bellator 208.
