Sonnen has spoken out about Chimaev's popularity

Chael Sonnen has had his say on Hamzat Chimaev and his popularity.

"Chimaev was the public's favorite. There were only two people who were loved in the same way - Conor McGregor and Ronda Rousey. The world loved Hamzat. Now it's the exact opposite. He can't be interviewed. We don't even know what country he lives in. It's very strange," Sonnen said in a video posted on his YouTube channel.
