Ahead of SUG 18, Chael Sonnen believes Mason Fowler is guy to beat

Out of the grain silo, Submission Underground rolls on Sunday with a grappler Chael Sonnen believes is the man to beat.

After twice defeating decorated grappler Craig Jones, Mason Fowler moves on to headline another SUG event against jiu-jitsu standout and MMA veteran Vinny Magalhaes.

Sonnen got a good sense of Jones’ popularity when he went to Australia to cover UFC 243. More of the questions he got were about grappling then MMA, and the Australian Jones was a regular topic.

But when Fowler upset Jones, it turned the retired UFC fighter’s head.
