Backstage With Chael Sonnen

[@alexandergunn8693]

"Chael Sonnen, Its good to see you" "It's good to be seen" Iconic

[@SubmissionRadio]

This never gets old!

[@georgexanthopoulos3003]

Right?? Every now and then I come back to it and enjoy this amazing, funny, theatrical interview :)

[@bakihanma1828]

Submission Radio I watch this every time i need some laughs

[@Azariah197]

Baki Hanma There used to be a compilation of over an hour of pure Chael Sonnen interview clips that seems to have been taken down. I need that back in my life.

[@pawlo669]

i come back every so often, surprised this doesnt have over 1M views, hidden gem

[@alexmakvet]

It never does, I'm Here tearing up almost 10 years ago!!!

[@brandonhall1564]

not a single cuss word

[@TheLuckyShepherd]

And refuses to insult GSP. Classy!

[@c.s.4191]

This is pure gold! 10:07 "I pick my medium very carefully when I talked about Brazil. I went...to the internet. And if I had the foggiest idea that they had computers, in Brazil, I wouldn't have done that." Oh man, that was next level. Ariel's face (at the end of it) says it all. Hahaha

[@RyukendenY]

This is pound for pound best MMA interview.

[@goodluckbro7311]

+RyukendenY In history. Every couple months I come back and watch this and it instantly improves my mood. If Chael had a little more exciting fighting style, he would've been way bigger than Conor McGregor is today. NO ONE can sell a fight like this guy could. He thought it was a horse!

[@danielpinto8621]

Completely agree with this. But not just fighting style, results. Chael was 16-8 while conor is 21-3. Conor is just a much better fighter (results wise) than Chael ever was. But yeah, If Chael actually beat Anderson in that first fight I believe he would have absolutely exploded.

[@lincolnmaylog8312]

greatest mma interview of all time

[@TheLockon00]

"Chael Sonnen, it's good to see you." "It's good to be seen!" lol

[@awol1209]

this is classic Chael. This is some of the funniest trolling ever.

[@chuckpinkard3251]

awol1209 Agreed

[@EvaBongoria]

VANDERLEI - YOU HAD ONE REAL FIGHT IN PRIDE, DUMMIE. IT WAS WITH CHARLES KRAZY HORSE BENNETT, AND YOU GO KNOCKED OUT!

[@anthonywesterman4166]

DJ C I'm pretty sure there's a video of it on youtube somewhere

[@Zeppelin616]

DJ C Yes but supposedly it was a cheap shot.

[@annhanna6543]

Crocop x2

[@rottenapples14]

"He tried to feed a bus a carrot" HAHAHAHA

[@gh0rochi363]

Do you believe me that that happened?

[@youalreadyknow5003]

Woaaaaah big fella

[@TheKingOfHonestyz]

The best interview in the history of sports

[@WashedCoachWith3Chips]

What is in that cup, Chael? He gets more n more fired up as the interview progresses. LMAO I miss Chael Sonnen!! From the time this interview was uploaded (2011) -the loss to Silva in the rematch (2012) was an awesome year, every day I'd always check on youtube if there was a new Chael Sonnen interview.

[@rrrockhard]

This man is a genius. I could watch this in loop mode for the rest of my life.

[@ripjawjones7001]

6:58-7:39 Chael owned him!!

[@usa5439]

I always come back to this from time to time. Classic chael

[@usa5439]

Back again in 2021. Classic chael

[@seansutton8618]

I'm proud to say that I saw this interview the day it came out, and I still watch it to this date.

[@deframon]

Epic interview, favorite quote is "the only thing more ridiculous is the night they woke up Matt Hughes and told him he was the champion. LOfuckingL

[@NewCanadianTurtle]

It's good to see you. It's good to be seen I'm so using that line!

[@MOzifyable]

You have to admit it is kind of funny when he just goes off on something.

[@Dgaf8896]

This is the number one interview in mma history and I have a CHOAD

[@GageRyanVideo]

"It's good to be seen" with that shit-eating grin never gets old.

[@garrettchin4923]

It's even more wild 7 years later they have a show on ESPN together...

[@Traypeats]

Classic interview lol

[@mrOrange1251]

Most iconic mma interview ever.

[@markheywood8236]

Pound for pound the greatest interview on any subject ever.

[@Cyprienroche]

Fedor, Wandy, Crocop and the Nog twins are some of my favorite MMA fighters, and I'm a huge PRIDE nostalgic but I can't help loving Chael and laughing my ass off when he comes up with this kind of stuff. His humor is weird as hell but I love it. RF

[@cognitivedisability9864]

@joah45 Good joke, Undisputed, undefeated

[@firecrackerjack68]

@joah45 undefeated and undisputed. Never piss off a gangster.

[@firecrackerjack68]

Sonnen's not wrong, fights in Pride were fixed.

[@slayerBO2EPC]

@joah45 those are not losses, those are the guys who quit mid-fight because they couldn't handle the American Gangster

[@samholden1339]

@joah45 aw its an angry Chael hater lol. The reason zuffa bought pride and pride never had another show was because it was revealed that the japanese mob(yakuza) was gambling on fights as well as fixing them. They're all public documents, one google search and 5 minutes of your time and maybe you wouldn't look like such a moron denying the truth.

[@rvanhelden69]

Chael keeps it real and represents america better than any fighter.

[@watswrongwithamerica]

Just because of this video i'm a huge Chael Sonnen fan now.

[@ikicash5731]

I stopped watching ufc after chael got fired

[@sam_s_]

I love that you can see in Arial's face, how entertaining he finds Chael.

[@joe27baja]

That was the best 19:54 seconds I have ever spent on KZbin...Im saying it was pound for pound hands down #1.

[@ImDaveMatthews]

God damn. A full decade later and I still love this video

[@Trrippy_Shades]

This guy is so juiced in this video and is absolutely hilarious this is the greatest interview in history and to this day I come back to it Connor has nothing on chael..legend 11/9/19

[@kookytheman2890]

I love Conor but Chael Sonnen's trash talk is a work of art. The way he burns Wanderlei is hilarious...

[@AlxThSeal]

Nothing but admiration for Ariel for keeping a straight face whilst listening to some of Chael's finest.

[@mikeromaniw]

one of the best interviews ive ever seen on anything ever. like him or hate him, this guy is engaging as hell. could listen to him all day.

[@londonjig]

"HE TRIED TO FEED A BUS....A CARROT..." LMAO

[@youalreadyknow5003]

Took his belt off and was gonna lasso that thing LOL

[@C0UCHL0CKED]

This is the greatest interview I've ever seen!

[@Dgaf8896]

The greatest mma interview ever

[@Da_Fonz]

At first I said this is the greatest MMA interview of all time, but now I'm saying this is the greatest sports interview of all time! Howard Cossel, and Ali, you've been bested!

[@TacticalItalian]

I still can't believe chael finished shogun

[@HariPrasad-hd5gu]

Turning off the comment section of chael sennon and tony Ferguson videos are crime

[@SkillStylePower]

"He can't win a round in the ufc, let alone a fight" Im dead lol

[@CaseyCJL]

37 thousand views is all this has... this is by far one of the most entertaining interviews i have ever seen. I will be upset if this doesn't have at least a million the next time i check in, spread the word about it

[@teddyxxix]

it's good to be seen :)

[@rmarin1498]

LOVE CHAEL SONNEN!!! This guy is so poised to become a superstar, and not just in the MMA. How can anyone not see how entertaining (and SMART) he is?? I just became a new fan after hearing him on a talk radio show a few weeks ago where he was just his regular, intelligent, grounded self. MORE INTERVIEWS PLEASE!

[@FrankenCastle92]

8:27 I just love it when turns to the camera to insult Wanderlei. LOL

[@CaseyCJL]

this is worthy of 10 million view. with out a doubt one of the most entertaining interviews in history

[@jacobkipp]

"I am a GANGSTER from America!" hahahahah

[@Leir0n]

"A guy so delusional" The camera zoom in on Chael...

[@onixz100]

"Good to see you." "It's good to be seen!" What a boss. And "How are you?" "I'm going well. How do I look?" Hahaha.

[@timviper8649]

Ariel, this is still your masterpiece.

[@MrDanielotterbeck]

Chael sonnen is the fucking king.

[@mindyourbuisness8104]

Unquestionably the greatest interview of all time

[@vl420]

I hated this guy at first but his "promos" are hillarious

[@cyezak]

I've watched this 6 times, still funny as hell and I'm an Anderson fan.

[@mxamiss5]

Best interview ever

[@MrPabloguida]

The buss horse thing is just the best!!! With all the respect that I have for the Nogueira brothers of course.

[@prostran1979]

cro cop said he would like to meet chael in croatia...on summer vacation

[@k2m524]

@joah45 Chael beats his ass. He will wrestle the fuck out of him.

[@nic265]

best interview i have ever watched. ever.

[@WayOfShotgun]

"Gimme a Silva!" xDDDD

[@david545400]

This guy is BY FAR the best interview in MMA. Just too funny but also some real truth too!! His comments about fighters dodging opponents and pound for pound are dead on.

[@mwgcubs]

"Give me a Silva!"

[@jdub2802]

The hilarity of this video has stood, and will continue to stand, the test of time. As funny now as it was 10 years ago. Everyone else is just playing for second.

[@k2m524]

WOOAAAAAAH BIG FELLA

[@rmelgar9]

best interview in mma EVER !

[@nwrpw1]

Nick Diaz fought in Pride, imagine telling him that any of his fights were fake... haha

[@manuelsilva264]

Nick fought in his debut in pride agaist takagori Gomi (pride champion) at The time and nick won in a non title fight

[@abdiabdulle3192]

that was pride in America lol

[@memelord8957]

Masterful.

[@DwwwD]

That division is trash. Michael Bisping is now the champ. Well damn I guess he was right.

[@michaeltruskauskas6120]

DwwwD lol thats not the division he was talking about

[@28johncena]

205

[@TDarshh]

This is probably the single greatest interview in MMA history.

[@mr.effective9619]

Chael just shit all over Pride's credibility.....could it be Chael, that Fedor, Wanderlei, and Crocop were all well past their primes when they stopped fighting in Japan and came over to the US?

[@cougher989]

Not only that, but MMA fighters were also reaching a new level in terms of standards, especially in the UFC. I do like Fedor and Crocop, and maybe they were past their prime. But in my opinion, their lack of success in UFC/Strikeforce was also because of the new generation's skills. I mean... think Cain Velasquez. Freakin insane. And what's crazier is someone will eventually be better than him too.

[@robertobrien609]

Sean Matthew The fighters in America are way better than the fighters in Japan.

[@BirdsOfGlass]

1 of the greatest interviews in #mma history.

[@Darnell_K]

Chael is the best thing for mma! I want to see any fight this guy is involved in.

[@hockey44d]

This interview was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

[@VmaryJ]

this is the best interview of all time

[@reedc15]

This man will be remembered for generations to come!

[@indycorbin]

How can you not love this guy? everything he says you want to hear!

[@DilatedEyesStudio]

As much as I want to hate Chael he keeps reeling me back in as a fan with these damn interviews. He gives the best interviews in MMA hands down. He is a human quote machine. "I will do a home invasion on you." - Chael Sonnen

[@SullenMorbius]

business man. politician. comedian. professional ass kicker. witty conversationalist. public enemy no. 1. he's the most interesting man in the world ... he's chael sonnen ...

[@bnxsde]

"that wanderlai is how you threaten somebody, dummy " LMFAO

[@TekkenForLife721]

wow best interview ive ever seen =]]]

[@grimmjowi]

This is by far Chaels best work to date.

[@noelynoelnh]

this man fears absolutely no one, and a man who fears no one can be very dangerous. ....

[@thomastakesportspodcast]

Best MMA interview EVER.

[@MaDGriZz78]

Love this guy man hes actually interesting and talks outside the box

[@njpf123]

Love Chael Sonnen . Just watching his interview promo is worth the ppv promos are worth its weight in gold!

[@madplya25]

[@drumrboy46]

I take that back.. I LOOOVE CHAEL SONNEN... Best fighter.. best Fight promoter.

[@LedHendrix408]

I don't understand how people can hate Chael Sonnen. The guy is hilarious. You gotta have a sense of humor. He's clearly not being serious with 99% of the things he says. He's not racist or homophobic like people are accusing him of, he's just being funny.

[@krevdog]

this interview is good to be seen !!

[@marcusaurelius569]

One of the best Chael interviews ever. Just brilliant.

[@ZHSamuels]

I have no idea how Ariel didn't even crack a smile when Chael said "Give me a Silva!" I was LMAO

[@gspsucks]

[@MaDGriZz78]

I dont laugh very often at youtube videos but I couldnt help myself with this one lolll hes the man.

[@amann24]

[@MegaNorwegianViking]

LOL.This is one of the greatest interviews ever,Sonnen is awsome! He is completly right in alot of what he says,Esp on the pound for pound subject..

[@jshnicl]

[@muscularguy0]

he tryed to feed the bus a carrot, he thought it was a horse. never gets old lmao

[@WARRENL30]

i would have watched another hour of that .... great stuff ... Sonnen is hilarious and can back up the smack talk ....

[@idkmybffjv]

Helwani's little nod at 7:40 is the best part.
