So it caused a bit of a stir and a lot of speculation when Chael drank a Coke at his 159 weigh in about whether he'd possibly gotten a Coca-Cola sponsorship
now that Sonnen's never going to get a belt he'll fade away. He's not relevant as a contender and he's not a crossover celebrity, he'd be better off trying to work his way in as a promoter/permanent employee of the UFC than trying to keep fighting. I know many people would be happy to hear him doing commentary during some of the fights.
yeah I saw his cameo or whatever that was, that doesn't make him a crossover. He simply doesn't have substantial revenue generating ability outside of real estate or mma, to think otherwise is ignorant. Chael's great at what he does, he needs to save his body and use his brain by working for the UFC, like Chuck but way more involved and up front.
Has this been confirmed by anyone other than, you know, Chael? Not that the guy's unreliable or anything.
I mean usually I'd take drinking a can of coke as irrefutable proof of quadrillion dollar sponsorships, but lately I've been seeing too many 12 year olds doing that to be sure.
I know a couple of twitter journalists have congratulated him, but they seem to be going by his word and the coke drinking more than any announcement by coca cola.
He actually could but I dubt he would, the UFC would most likely offer him a great job within the company, hopefully commentating with joe rogan or frank mir for fuel shows and whatnot
I just don't see any reason for him to keep fighting, he's the best guy to have in front of the camera the company's ever had. Only a matter of time imo, Chael's smarter than he is tough, prove in that he was able to get the pay days he did with the fighting ability he had.
I'm a little curious as to what stir this actually caused. Or speculation. Nobody wants to actually drink that crap but terminal type II diabetics, so a guy right after a weigh-in slurpping a can of sugar down holding it like that is kind of obvious. Not news.
All soda is disgusting... do you guys have any idea how bad that shit is for you? It's literally caffeine, sugar, and syrup mixed with food coloring and carbonation.
Lol as if drinking Soda every now and then is going to matter. Hell even MMA fighters drink Soda when they are not training. Its only bad if you drink it constantly. Someone who stays active and maybe has a soda once or twice a week isnt going to feel any negative side effects from it.
Some things are worse than others though. You overdo something like, say, cabbage, the worst you're gonna have is a bloated stomach and a bit of gas. You overdo soda and you're gonna be a diabetic with a heart attack. You overdo prescription meds and you're dead within minutes.
It's also about how much is "overdoing" ... again for something like cabbage you can literally eat a full cabbage for every meal for a year and not have any problems, in fact it's probably healthy. You drink a full bottle of coke for every meal, you're practically guaranteed to be a tub of lard and halfway to diabetes by the year end. And it's much easier and tempting to drink a full bottle of coke than eat a full cabbage, it just fills you up quicker.
I do agree with your general attitude of moderation though, I also sometimes have a glass every few months or so and it's not like I never have ever have a rum and coke etc. It's just that I'd usually prefer something better than that crap.
Awesome Avy. That episode is hilarious (Even though that kinda looks like a live version of their show). Im watching season 8 episode 4 right now. Where the rich pretend to be friends with mac and dee.
But it is supposed to be "Boys soul" not "Boys hole". It just kept sounding like Frank was saying hole lol. I remember Charlie even commenting on that haha.
The Troll (spoken over music): You came at the right time!

Ugh. believe me from experience, Soda, whether drunk in large quanties and short term, is NOT GOOD! Believe me! I gained 5lbs just drinking soda for 3 days straight a couple of years back. Plus my breath STANK!
Iv drank more soda then that and never gained a pound from it. N i brush my teeth after so i dont have a problem with that either. You sure you didnt have pizza or supersized meals to go with your soda??
Look at all of the doctors and health experts posting from their computers.
I'd wager 95% of you are overweight with terrible skin. Especially Soojooko, though I imagine the English actually do avoid soda given the already wretched state of their teeth and gums.
