UNIONDALE, N.Y. – In the process of turning himself into one of MMA’s most iconic characters, Chael Sonnen has deployed mostly two weapons: a sharp sense of humor and off-the-charts confidence. Judging by his chat with reporters following Saturday’s Bellator 208, It seems the first-round TKO loss to Fedor Emelianenko (38-5 MMA, 2-1 BMMA) wasn’t enough to shake either of those things. Still, as he served them, Sonnen (30-16-1 MMA, 2-2 BMMA) made sure to add a dose of humility, along with some shade toward his peers.
