    Sonnen vs. Galvao at Metamoris 4

    Rumored card:

    Main event: Andre Galvao vs Chael Sonnen.
    - Kron Gracie vs Benson Henderson
    - Saulo Ribeiro vs Comprido Medeiros
    - Dean Lister vs Josh Barnett
    - Keenan Cornelius vs Kevin Casey
    - Kit Dale vs Garry Tonon
    -Orlando Sanchez vs Vinny Magalhaes

    Galvao is not that great of a bottom position grappler but he can still tap Sonnen. Kron will tap Bendo within 60 seconds. Lister vs. Barnett is interesting for sure. No interest in watching Keenan destroy Casey again.

    All said, great card IMO.

    Am I nuts or shouldn't Galavo and Lister kill Sonnen and Barnett?

        She's still around. Mostly she poses half naked in her gi for magazines. She is never going to fight in MMA. I can't even recall the last BJJ comp she did. I think she is pregnant.

          If Galvao ever gets on top, Sonnen will be submitted. He isn't really a high guard, triangle type guy, so I could see Sonnen surviving for a long time just by handing out in guard and not trying anything, kind of like what Couture did with Jacare. He'll never pass guard or score a point, but he might be able to survive. He would have 0% chasnce of beating Galvao, but he might be able to survive for a while.

          Lister vs. Barnett, I don't really know. Babalu damn near beat Lister at Metamoris 3 after Dean got tired. Barnett is huge and he knows the leg lock game, so you never know.

          Kron/bendo is the biggest mismatch IMO. Bendo is a great fighter, but he gets subbed by local brown belts at the Arizona Open, Kron is going to sub him easily IMO.

            Here. I think this came out a month ago in some grappling mag:

                  Sonnen needs some new material. I don't understand why every one thinks he is so good at promos...

                    That's all he's got. No one knew his name before he started with the crazy talk.

                    And what f-ing championship did he ever walk away with?

                      Strikeforce? No. Maybe the 1998 senior FS wrestling nationals?


                      I'm just saying I don't get why people think it is clever at all... to me it just seems lame and stale.

                        I don't think he's clever at all. I did think it was funny when it first started, but quickly got old

                          I still love the guy. He literally doesnt let the facts get in the way of a good story.
