Who has Sonnen failed to takedown?

Bisping. Had 3 takdowns stuffed, If Bisping can do it Jones can much easier. I would like to so Chael win but hes not going to.
If Sonnen takes Jones down, it will be the most difficult thing anyone has ever accomplished against Jones. I will be very surprised if it happens.
I will also be surprised if Jones doesn't finish Sonnen faster than Anderson did in their second fight.

He put Bisping on his back several times, so did not FAIL to take Bisping down. That would imply Bisping stuffed all of his attempts.

True. There was just one clinch and Maia did one of the most memorable takedowns and submissions in UFC history. A thing of beauty.

I see s--- like that in the gym every day. Looking in the mirror on the wall as I'm rolling. Usually its the last thing I remember before my face turns purple and I pass out.

Not quite triangles like that. Just stuff that probably looks impressive to anyone watching as in reality its happening to someone (me) with the defensive skills of how Chael would look if he had downs syndrome.

I think this fight ends with Sonnen on his back. Jon's frame is so large that I think Sonnen is going get swept in a best case scenario or get whizzered in a worse case scenario. I really see this as a bad match for Chael.
Definitely a bad matchup for Sonnen, but I don't know of anyone who matches up favorably with Jones.
I think Sonnen will take Jones down, but Sonnen will be finished in round 2 if not round 1.

I honestly dont know but he dropped from LHW to MW because the LHWs were too big. Now hes going back, realizing he cant win a title at MW.
remember Rashad stalking Jon and getting struck up by jon?
Well Chael is about half as fast as Suga.And this could get ugly for him.
Especially when Jon gets in underhooks and shows Chael how strong he actually is
Chael is a MW fighting Bones at LHW who could fight at HW. I would have a better opinion of Sonnen fighting at LHW if he actually fought one recently. We'll see what happens but I don't think it's going to happen. and if it does it's not going to be long til Jon gets up.

I think Jones breaks Sonnen. Sonnen gave up after the failed takedown VS Silva. Watch the end of Sonnen Silva 2. Nothing lands and Sonnen falls on his side. Same thing happens here.
What has Sonnen accomplished in the UFC? Take away the first Anderson fight that made him what he is today, where he was loaded with testosterone. 14:1. He beat Okami. Thats his biggest win.
Also, Ever since he got subbed early in his UFC debut VS Maia, he hasnt fought any BJJ finishers.
This isnt hate on Chael, I love watching him fight. Just an observation.
