Chael Sonnen Defeats Yushin Okami

Damn, what happened to Yushin Okami? This dude used to be a major threat in the middleweight division. Before this fight, his only loss was a split decision to Rich Franklin. Now, he's getting manhandled by Captain Average. How the mighty have fallen...

As for Chael Sonnen, he proved he's a better fight than we thought he was. In fact, he may have convinced people he's worthy of taking on opponents who are in the top 10 of 185 pound division. That's a good thing too. They're always looking for fresh bodies to put up against Anderson Silva.

Of course, what Dana really looks for is dudes who finish fights. Still, you have to give props to Chael for at least trying to win the fight.

Okami looked like he didn't want to be there. It wouldn't come as a surprise if it turns out he was battling an injury. When a fighter knows he' s not at 100%, his confidence takes a big hit. Okami looked like he had given up before the first round ended.
