Chael Sonnen, the brash republican trash talker, was on his way to a dominating victory of UFC middleweight champion, Anderson Silva, until, Sonnen got himself caught by quick triangle submission in the 5th and final round with only a few moments till the end of the fight.

Anderson Silva was in the toughest fight of his UFC career and unlike his previous fights where his opponents were tentative to attack, Chael came to Silva with guns blazing. Sonnen landed punches in the first round wobbling Silva and taking him down and imposing his will early.

Every round, it looked like Sonnen was on his way to a victory and becoming the new UFC middleweight champion. Anderson Silva needed a knockout or a submission to win, and he got his miracle in the 5th and final round with a triangle choke.

During the post fight interview, Silva admitted he was injured during training camp and damaged his ribs causing doctors to question if he should fight tonight or not but Silva decided to fight and disobeyed doctors advice for him to call off the fight.

Unlike his trash talk leading up to UFC 117, Sonnen was humble in defeat, telling Joe Rogan that he only won the silver medal but still wants to be the best.

The fight was very competitive and fans would certainly be interested in a rematch between Anderson Silva and Chael Sonnen.
