There’s no going out on top for “The Bad Guy”.
Chael Sonnen is one of eight men taking part in Bellator’s upcoming Heavyweight Grand Prix that will crown its first champion since the division’s title was vacated in May 2016. He has never competed in a weight class higher than 205 pounds, but he is taking the move up seriously and insisting that a tournament and title win won’t result in a triumphant ride off into the sunset.
“I get split a little bit about that,” Sonnen said on a media call for Bellator 192.
