Quick read
Chael Sonnen expressed strong criticism about Magomed Ankalaev not being included in the vacant light heavyweight title fight. Sonnen pointed out that Ankalaev has a 1-1 record against Alex Pereira and is the only fighter in the group who has actually defeated Pereira, yet he wasn't even considered for the title bout. Sonnen argued that the current title fight lacks the most exciting fighter (Rountree), the most intriguing (Jamal), and the most accomplished (Ankalaev). He concluded that the matchup has such a weak storyline that people aren't even discussing the absence of the right fighters, stating both current participants are wrong choices.
