Showdown Joe is the worst, his ego is the only thing bigger than his eyebrows. It's like watching the nerdiest kid in class think that he's friends with all the cool kids, and then they all laugh behind his back.

Moreso than Showdown Joe who has the best mma show in Canada?

I dont think so.

I watch OTR or at least try to check it out when I can, and I dont hate on Landsberg, but his "interview" was pretty pathetic tbh. Landsberg tried to be the show, when the thing to do with Sonnen is give him some rope and let him run with it and hang himself by saying something outrageous/ridiculous. If Landsberg had a clue in this case he would know this. Instead we got an "oh yeah- well you chickened out!" over and over again.

Instead of something ridiculous/outrageous, we got stupid and boring.

Agreed.

I don't have a problem with Landsberg, I have a problem with this particular interview by Landsberg. It was downright embarrassing.

Landsberg totally sucks, God Sonnen was joking around why does Landsberg have to be so serious... just roll with it.

Sonnen should replace Landsberg on off the record.

why does Sonnen still think he's the champ?

Why do you take what Sonnen says seriously?

It's more amazing that people still don't get his act.

I get that it's just an act but....seriously?

This would be like the Vancouver Canucks claiming they won the Cup last year

It's even more amazing that people think it's still all an act.

It clearly is.

It's only an act to an extent. Chael Sonnen is a real life *******. He brings it up to 11 on interviews, etc. But anyone who says it's all an act clearly didn't follow the guy over his career. He's always been a loudmouthed *****.

It is mostly an act. Sonnen himself said that he was borrowing a lot from pro wrestling since he's a huge fan. He created a persona to sell himself and it works pretty well. He has become much more popular (or hated) since he elevated his trash talking game about a year ago. The guy is now on talk shows . do color commentary ect. He's like the official "heel" of the UFC.
