But we'll never know for sure. Wasn't Sonnen supposed to retire after his second loss to Silva? Too bad he's all talk in every aspect.
Sonnen vs Stann was the co-main event for UFC on Fox 2. Sonnen vs Bisping was on UFC 136.

I wouldn't say he ended the fight right when he wanted to, he found an opening and capitalized on it. Sonnen was like 2 mins away from winning the decision which is pretty hard to deny. This is coming from an Anderson Silva fan boy too so it's not a biased opinion. Was definitely one of the best comebacks in UFC history.
