Been a good show so far, the unbeaten Russian guy looked nastyyyy with those elbows, Gonzaga gon Gonzaga, and Sarafian looks prettu damn good (although Dollaway is garbage)
And just like that, the middleweight division is cleaned out.
Didn't see the event but heard about about Vitor trashing Chael and calling out Jones, think he's pretty delusional to be honest.
You say he almost tapped him out, I say he put him in an armbar, couldn't finish it and then got his ass beat to a finish. Nothing to warrant him calling out Jones, maybe he should have called out Anderson seeing as though he beat the #1 contender although I guess he'd prefer to get his ass beat by Jones again than being humiliated by Silva.Well in his defense he did almost tap out Jones, coming closer than any other fighter to beating Jones.

I just don't see how any of that lends any credibility to him deserving another a title shot. I just rewatched the fight to make sure I was remembering it correctly and I still firmly believe that a 10 second armbar attempt doesn't warrant a rematch with Jones, especially when he got dominated for the rest of the fight. If we're throwing out rematches based off of what you put above then lets give Condit an immediate rematch for head kicking and rocking GSP and lets give Chael another rematch against AndersonWell tell me who else has even come close to catching Jones in an armbar? Who else has caught Jones in any kind of trouble? Who else has done anything to Jones that has had him in any kind of real retreat mode and having to battle back? Vitor couldn't finish it cause Jones refused to tap.
And still got dominated over the whole fight despite having an injured arm, hardly something to use to champion your case.Jones suffered some damage to the elbow which means... that armbar was legit locked in. It would be like how Mir had that kimura locked in on Big Nog but he didn't tap... broke his arm. So yeah... whats the problem in calling out Jones? He damaged Jones more than Machida, Rampage, and Evans combined. Those three were the number 1 contenders and Jones just ran right through them.
I have no problem with guys calling other people out but I suggest that if you want to call someone out then at least be fighting in that weight class..Maybe you just prefer that these guys don't call anybody out and just sit on their hands waiting for their next fight and not say anything.
You are never delusional when you are trashing Chael. Sonnen has no business being in the title main event and that’s a fact. Props to Vitor for the vicious KO (shades of 06 Cro Cop) and hopefully he lands a big fight again soon.
