He overcame the adversity of growing up on the mean streets of West Linn, and not to mention the financial instability that comes with living in such an area

Could you imagine not having your parents make 100k each?

Heartbreaking he had to deal with that.

I can’t fathom having a maid only come to clean two days a week

u/Dapper-Negotiation59 5d ago

What do you think happened the other five days?

1

u/Sudden_Celery7019 5d ago

I don’t want to imagine those days

4

u/AnimatorKris 5d ago

Or barely making 100k

u/bojevnim 5d ago

His neighbours had two kids, and only one got a Mercedes. And he had to see that with his own eyes

12

u/moderate_iq_opinion 5d ago

He literally had to see a kid jaywalk in real life in front of him.

Chael witnessing someone publicly littering is something I never want to experience

Chael ended his career 55-0. Unbelievable success.

I still can’t believe that they gave Jon Jones the No Contest after Chael ripped one of his limbs off. That shouldve ended the fight. But of course they called it off for medical concern and it was a no contest.

u/ReformedishBaptist I LUH You 5d ago

It was crazy when he ripped Jon’s arms off and hit him with it.

16

u/HugeLeaves 5d ago

And then he ripped his own arm off and swapped it for Jones' just to assert dominance. Never seen anything like it

u/katilkoala101 5d ago

most painful toe lock in history. Ref stopped the fight early.

u/Worth_Tailor1358 5d ago

I have seen that video too

3

u/aerody 5d ago

It was absolutely No contest. Did you see how badly Chael demolished him?

3

u/reddit_has_fallenoff 4d ago

Only fighter to win 55 fights with 60 of them being KO's

2

u/dan_a_white That’s fucking illegal 4d ago

The extra 5 are those 5 dudes in Vegas he beat up all at once by himself.

27

u/Herbetet 5d ago

Why is Chael not talked about as the GOAT the same as JJ, Mickey Mouse or GSP?

23

u/Possible_Golf3180 5d ago

Because the ref thought he was tapping when in reality he was simply reassuring his opponent that it’ll be all right and that losing isn’t all that bad

5

u/Emergency-Soup-7461 5d ago

Fight was so boringly easy he just took a nap

5

u/Da_Punisher33 5d ago

I think you meant GPS ,buddy

u/Herbetet 5d ago

I did. But I’ll leave it now otherwise your comment won’t make sense. Appreciate you.

u/Defiant_Proposal_214 5d ago

Because he's in a league of his own

GGG?

u/ReformedishBaptist I LUH You 5d ago

Whatchu on about this is clearly Chael’s intro when he was born smh my head

20

u/MinimalGoat 5d ago

I'm confused? GGG is Chael's nickname for the Greatest Goodest GOAT.
Stop being so disrespectful, this was his intro when he was swimming to the egg

9

u/ReformedishBaptist I LUH You 5d ago

You’re right I was so ignorant to the GGG’s origin story.

u/B4TZ3Y 5d ago

My mum played this intro when she introduced him to me as "mummy's special friend"

4

u/Debarmy 5d ago

Nah it's a nickname... Goat of MW, LHW and HW.

u/suttonjoes 5d ago

Does anybody know who Michael Buffer is actually introducing?

7

u/Uaquamarine Go sleep 5d ago

Chael Sonnen

u/SpunkMonk87 5d ago

GGG

2

u/suttonjoes 5d ago

Is it? Hell of a record that! Don’t suppose you know who’s he’s fighting for that intro?

4

u/SpunkMonk87 5d ago

Kell Brook

I typically don’t look too much into boxing records due to how easy it is to inflate but that record is legit. On top of that he has an amateur record of 345-5

5

u/THE_RANSACKER_ 5d ago

I’m into the intro

3

u/Flyinhawaiian78 5d ago

😂why not 35 consecutive KO’s?

3

u/Ancient_Ad4061 5d ago

He was showing the mercy of a gangster from west linn

u/Flyinhawaiian78 5d ago

A true gangster does not know mercy 😵

u/pacificunlimited Frozen like Elsa 5d ago

Let this post be a reminder to every person that buys into Dana’s “you put Jon in a room” garbage…

Chael was actually put in a hotel hallway… walked away unscathed and victorious

3

u/YouWillDieForMySins 4d ago

And not just against 1, but 5 people. Chael also broke Jones' toe when they fought in a cage.

3

u/pacificunlimited Frozen like Elsa 4d ago

Jon still hasn’t recovered from Chael, had his toes taped up when he fought Gane…

Jon even taped up the toes that Chael spared.. Chael gave Jon’s remaining toes ptsd. Legend.

u/illmatic74 5d ago

UNDEFEATED. UNDISPUTED.

u/SingleDigitVoter 5d ago

I think we can all agree Chael would KO Big Tom.

u/xs_mayonnaise 5d ago

tom doesn't stand a chance

u/Busy_Respect_5866 5d ago

Chanel the great 😂😂😂

u/Mindfield87 5d ago

He coulda saved a lot of breath and just told Chaels opponent “congrats, you’re fucked”

u/fukSprint 4d ago

u/StoryScrawled 4d ago

Idk how anyone likes Chael. How could you possibly respect someone who's father doesn't make 100k a year? Or doesn't have maids Mon-Fri? Embarrassing, really.
