In their super fight, Chael Sonnen was convinced that he had beaten Jon Jones.

Although the Underdog knew that his rival was extremely gifted, in the months prior to their collision, he had noticed that the New Yorker did not seem to train as hard as he was.

In an episode of The Fight Back Podcast, Sonnen claimed: “It is hard to explain how talented he is at that game. We did the ultimate hunter together and my confidence grew every day.

“First of all, we were offered the opportunity to fight, and he rejected it. That was a kind of honorary sign for me:” What did he see, why did he reject it “? It stimulated me a bit.

“Then we did the ultimate hunter, and I did two training sessions a day, every day, six days a week, and he never broke sweat. He didn't even come in some days. He had been to the club.

“So I look at that, and I say:” Ok, he's really good, but I can certainly surpass it, I do it well, I do it every day, and it just wasn't like that. That guy can just play this game. “

Jones finished Sonnen with cruel elbows in the very first round.
