Cheal Sonnen meddelar till UFC Tonight att han tänker pensionera sig från den professionella MMA-scenen.
Chael Sonnen (28-14-1) lägger handskarna på hyllan för gått, efter det uppmärksammade dopingavslöjandet.
”I want to take an opportunity to officially announcement my retirement from competitive mixed martial arts. I had a great time. I want to thank Roy Pittman. I want to thank Dave Sandal. I want to thank my coach Clayton Hires. These guys taught me how fight, they taught me how to persevere and they stood by me through thick and thin. I had a great time.”
”I want to stay within the rules, and I don’t fully understand them, and I have to put my health first. I have to put my family first. If I know what I know now, and I know that this is going to work and I’m going to be able to get my wife pregnant and look forward to having a family, I’m going to do the exact same thing 20 more times, which is going to put me out of compliance 20 more times. Let me just remove myself.”
UFC blir därmed en färgstark karaktär mindre.
