Chael Sonnen Tests Positive For Last Month's UFC 117 Title Fight
Sep 20, 2010
Last month, Chael Sonnen put on the performance of his life, losing to Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva. Sonnen dominated Silva in a way that no one has ever done before, until he was caught by a submission in the 5th round.
Now according to The Calfornia State Athletic Commission and Sherdog, Sonnen has tested positive for performance enhancing drugs after a test following his fight last month.
This obviously puts the Silva vs. Sonnen rematch in February in jeopardy, especially if Sonnen gets a year suspension. It's likely that the winner of Belfort/Okami in November will get the title shot now early in 2011.
