Chael Sonnen and Yushin Okami Training for Their Upcoming Fights (Video)

Chael Sonnen and Yushin Okami are ranked Nos. 2 and 3 in the majority of MMA rankings. Both men met inside the octagon at UFC 104 back in October of 2009. Sonnen won the decision in dominating fashion, and since then, the men have trained together. 

In his last bout, Yushin Okami defeated Nate Marquardt in impressive fashion, earning himself a much-deserved title shot. He will meet Anderson Silva at UFC 134: Rio in a rematch that is five years in the making.

Since training with Chael and Team Quest, Yushin has improved tons on his wrestling and will only get better. Expect an interesting bout when Anderson and Yushin collide—anything could happen.

Chael Sonnen is probably the most loved man in MMA at the moment [sarcasm]. He has been all over the media with his interesting interviews and tweets.

The people want Chael.

He receives tons of criticism by people saying he should spend less time talking smack and more time training. Well, there is a really funny story about that.

He has been training the whole time since he has been suspended and is in arguably the best shape of his life.

Chael meets Brian Stann at UFC 136 in Houston, Texas. If Chael wins, he is the No. 1 contender for the middleweight championship.

These two men are two of the hardest-working men in the sport. Both are extremely strong and have solid cardio. It would be interesting to see a rematch between the two since both train together and know each others' games very well.

This video speaks for itself. Whether you like or dislike either guy, there is no denying the work ethic of either man. Expect wars in each fighter's upcoming fights, and pay close attention.

Chael Sonnen vs. Yushin Okami II for the UFC middleweight championship of the world.

Is that what is going to happen next?
