Here’s the thing about a fixed fight. It’s not like Bellator, Tito, Sonnen, and the ref would all have to be in on it. It’s hard to imagine Big John ever playing that game, he’s one of the best representatives about all that is good in MMA.




Bellator wouldn’t risk their license. You really only need one person to be in on it, and that’s the guy losing the fight.

But what would Sonnen have to gain from this? Getting some of his friends to bet on Tito? It’s pretty easy to track that. Sonnen wants to continue his career, he has a six fight contract, why would he risk that to give a fight to Tito Ortiz?

You’ve probably seen the submission by now – what do you think? Did Sonnen throw the fight? And if so – why? What does he gain from that? Do you think it was a legitimate finish, and if so – what convinced you?
