He was an NCAA Division I All-American wrestler at the University of Oregon, a two-time University Greco national champion as well as the 85.0 kg silver medalist at the 2000 Greco-Roman World University Championships in Tokyo, Japan.[3]

As of October 2011, Sonnen is ranked as the #2 middleweight in the world by Sherdog.[4]

Mixed martial arts career

Sonnen started his MMA career at the age of 19 in 1997 by defeating Ben Hailey in Vancouver, Washington. His second fight was against future ICON Sport Middleweight Champion and Strikeforce Middleweight contender Jason "Mayhem" Miller. Sonnen went 6–0 in his first six fights, until his loss to Trevor Prangley, which he later avenged in 2006 at UFC Ultimate Fight Night 4. He also fought The Ultimate Fighter winner and former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Forrest Griffin.

UFC

Sonnen made his UFC debut against former IFC and Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Renato Sobral at UFC 55, where Sonnen fought for his first time at Light Heavyweight. He lost via triangle choke in the second round. Afterwards, he avenged his first ever MMA defeat by defeating Trevor Prangley at UFC Ultimate Fight Night 4 by unanimous decision. Then, for a third time, he fought Jeremy Horn at UFC 60 and lost via armbar. Having gone 1–2 in the Octagon, Sonnen has been suspended by athletic commission till late 2011.

Bodog Fight

After leaving the UFC, Sonnen was signed by Bodog Fight. He earned his first victory in Bodog Fight by defeating Tim Credeur via TKO. After that he fought Alexey Oleinik to a unanimous decision victory, and defeated Tim McKenzie via brabo choke within the first 15 seconds of the opening round. After quickly dismantling McKenzie, Sonnen fought UFC and Pride veteran Amar Suloev and won via TKO. After Bodog, Sonnen defeated future Ultimate Fighter member Kyacey Uscola at SuperFight 20: Homecoming.

World Extreme Cagefighting

In December 2007, Sonnen fought Paulo Filho for the WEC middleweight championship. Sonnen lost via submission at 4:55 of the second round. There was controversy stemming from the fight stoppage, however. Sonnen did not tap out but yelled out, and the referee took that as a verbal submission and stopped the fight. In his post-fight interview Sonnen said that he told the referee not to stop the fight, and continually said "No" when the referee asked if he wanted to submit.[5]

A rematch between the two was scheduled for March 26, 2008, but was cancelled due to Paulo Filho checking himself into a rehabilitation clinic for an unknown substance abuse problem.[6] Sonnen instead faced undefeated WEC middleweight contender Bryan Baker and dominated him for three rounds, winning a unanimous decision.[7] Sonnen and Filho eventually met again on November 5, 2008, where Sonnen soundly defeated Filho by unanimous decision. Prior to the fight, Filho did not make weight, weighing in at close to seven pounds over 185, thus making the bout a non-title match and taking away the chance for Sonnen to rematch for the WEC title. After Filho lost, he announced he would ship Sonnen the championship belt.[8]

Return to UFC

Following the dissolution of the WEC's middleweight division Sonnen was moved back over to the UFC, in his first fight in the promotion since UFC 60, he lost via triangle choke to Demian Maia at UFC 95.

Sonnen defeated Dan Miller at UFC 98 on May 23 via unanimous decision. Sonnen showed his willingness and toughness as a fighter and came in as a late replacement for Yushin Okami when Okami sustained a torn ligament in training.[9] Sonnen took the fight on 22 days notice and lost 36 pounds to compete.[10] Incidentally in his next fight, Sonnen out-wrestled Okami at UFC 104 to a unanimous decision victory.[11] The weeks proceeding the fight, Okami ask and trained with Chael Sonnen and his camp for a number of weeks. Chael Sonnen commented on Okami's size, strength and skill set as well as his relationship with Okami as something close to a brother.

Sonnen was expected to face Nate Marquardt on February 21, 2010 at UFC 110, but the fight was moved up and the two fought at UFC 109 on February 6, with Sonnen winning via unanimous decision after out-wrestling the heavily favored Marquardt for three rounds. Marquardt caught Sonnen in two very deep guillotine chokes in the first and third rounds; however, Sonnen managed to get free. With the victory, Sonnen solidified his position as the next fighter in line to challenge Anderson Silva for the UFC Middleweight Championship.

Middleweight Championship Bout

Sonnen fought Anderson Silva for the UFC Middleweight Championship on August 7, 2010 at UFC 117.[12] Sonnen trash talked during the build up to the fight, which caused some controversy, as he stated that he was going to retire Silva.[13][14][15] Sonnen won each of the first four rounds on all of the judges' scorecards, with the score heading into the fifth round being 40–34, 40–35, and 40–36.[16][17] However in the final round Sonnen found himself caught in a triangle attempt by the champion, Sonnen managed to pull his head out of the choke, but fell into an armbar by Silva, Sonnen tapped and lost the fight by armbar at 3:10 in the fifth round. Silva became the third man in the UFC's history to finish a fight in the fifth round and the second via submission.

Aftermath

Sonnen stated he wanted another shot at Silva but did not want to wait around for a rematch until Silva recovered from a rib injury he allegedly carried into the Sonnen bout.[18] The much anticipated rematch was expected to take place sometime in early 2011.[19] However, post-fight drug tests showed Sonnen had an elevated testosterone level which fell outside of the normal range prior to his fight with Anderson Silva.[20] According to California State Athletic Commission Executive Officer George Dodd, Chael Sonnen has been notified that he failed post-fight drug screening following his loss to Anderson Silva at UFC 117. Sonnen was fined $2,500 and suspended until September 2, 2011. Sonnen appealed on December 2, 2010.[21] He was scheduled to rematch Silva on Feb. 5 in Las Vegas, but that fight was ultimately scrapped in light of the ruling.[22] Vitor Belfort instead got the nod against Silva.[23]

Sonnen appealed his suspension on the grounds he had a medical reason for the elevated testosterone. He was diagnosed with hypogonadism in 2008 and takes synthetic testosterone injections twice a week due to this condition.[24] Initially, Sonnen testified that he had been granted prior approval from the Nevada State Athletic Commission for testosterone replacement. Based on that testimony, the California State Athletic Commission decided to reduce his suspension from twelve months to six months, initially believing he had simply failed to properly disclose this to the California State Athletic Commission before his fight. His suspension ended on March 2, 2011. However, Nevada State Athletic executive director Keith Kizer refuted these claims, citing he had never approved Sonnen of testosterone replacement. Sonnen had never applied for the approval process nor had he ever spoken to Kizer about testosterone replacement, contradicting his initial testimony in court.[22]

On May 18, 2011, given the felony charges and citation of false testimony that he had been approved for testosterone replacement, the California State Athletic Commission panel voted 4–1 to revert Sonnen's six month reduction to an indefinite suspension, and later indicated that Sonnen was suspended until his current license ran out (i.e., June 29, 2011), and could not re-apply for a license in California until one year from the date of Commission's decision (i.e., May 18, 2012).[25] However, less than 48 hours later on May 20, 2011 the Commission altered its position, acknowledging that it had misinterpreted California Code of Regulations Title 4 Rule 399, and clarifying that Sonnen was able to apply for a fight license in the state any time after his current license expires (i.e., June 29, 2011). In the event Sonnen attempts such an application, he would have to appear again before the Commission panel, and it would remain within the Commission's discretion to deny Sonnen's application.[26]

Sonnen defeated Brian Stann in the second round via arm triangle choke on October 8, 2011 at UFC 136, implementing his relentless wrestling style and completely dominating Stann. In the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, Sonnen called out Anderson Silva, who was in attendance. Sonnen proposed a rematch with Silva on Super Bowl weekend and said if he loses, he would leave the UFC forever. If Silva loses, Silva would have to leave the middleweight division. He confirmed in the post fight interview that he is sticking to his word, although presumably Silva would have to agree to the terms. However, Sonnen stated a week later that the offer had "expired." [27]

Money laundering controversy

Sonnen pled guilty to charges of money laundering in connection with mortgage fraud on January 3, 2011. The maximum sentence is 20 years in prison and a $500,000 fine,[28] but as a result of his plea and agreeing to cooperate with the investigation into a ring of mortgage fraud, Sonnen is expected to receive two years probation, a $10,000 fine, and the revocation of his realtor license.[29] Sonnen, a licensed realtor in the State of Oregon, admitted that a financial transaction he conducted was designed to conceal or disguise the ownership and control of the proceeds of wire fraud.[30]

As the agent for a home sale, Sonnen told the title company to pay a plumbing company owned by Sonnen's mother[31] for repairs, even though he knew that they would not be carried out.[32] After the mortgage company agreed to the loan, the plumbing company was paid $69,000, and then the plumbing company, at Sonnen's direction, paid the home buyer $65,000.[33]

As expected, Sonnen was fined $10,000 and sentenced to two years of probation.[34]
