Chael Sonnen's Mom Claudia on what makes him a great competitor & pulling a shotgun on Yushin Okami 

4th grade Chael saying “I’ve got it figured out” is the most Chael thing ever lol

"I just see techniques, I see skill, I see development". That sounds like something Chael would say, in terms of how he structures his sentences. That definitely is Chael's mom.

Nice mother, nice son, good luck to them and Yushin!

She is such an open, intelligent, and really neat lady. That's the type of mother people dream about. Lucky to have her in your corner!

That Yushin story is hilarious lol

Chael Sonnen speaks so fluently and detailed just like his mom.

you can hear certain similarities with her son in her intonation when she talks

I can see where he gets his looks from.

(Story) 3:47 - Yushin Okami .... Thank You

They cut the part where she calls out Jon Jones's mother.

Did you know that chael used to take his mam to every training section an fight! Good guy is sonnen

Yushin had a key I'm assuming? Obviously she didn't know he was coming but holy shit if she'd have shot through the door she could have killed him. It's a funny story now but it could have been a horrible one.

MMA fighters are the most decent guys. It is very true. The basketball is the sport with many guys who are very cocky, bullies and thugs. If I get bullied in school it always were from the basketball players, but always made good friends with karate, wrestling or other fighting guys.

She seems like a lovely lady. Great story, haha!

Mom, this is a great story and all, but you really need to wrap this up - did you shoot Yushin Okami?!?!

she is an awesome lady!

Yes, indeed. A keen observation.

Cool mom. Classic story.

I love hearing that story

Well good for her. She has a brave son. He fought AS & Jon Jones with courage. Hate all you want a-holes. Chael Sonnen gets fights and gets paid.....the people's champ. DON'T RETIRE TOO SOON CHAEL

She seems like a very nice lady👍👍👍

She seems a very nice person! You can see that Chael was raised well ignoring all the smack talk he does. Thats just part of a character he has created anyway! I dont think thats the real Chael to be honest.

3:51 for the okami story

Claudia Sonnen 1, 3, 5!

If only I was 30 years older

its chael in a wig

Chaels mum: ok great

I don't like Chael Sonnen but I would always have respect for my elders ESPECIALLY someone's mother! This is a great story btw lol!

I see now where did Chael take the "blue-eyed german" feature from

Badass mom

Wow, the similarities.

I can see chael in her mother's eyes...

My mom thinks I'm cool, too. Maybe I can be as rich as Chael someday.

cut the Mic out of Michael miCHAEL

Mrs. Sonnen and Chael are very similar.

She's a nice mom 💙

When will she admit the affair with John Madden?!?! Look at Chael!! LOOK AT HIMM!!!

Castle Doctrine all the way baby.

"Mrs." Sonnen... what the hell kinda illicit drugs were you on when you named him Chael?? What the hell is a Chael ??

Yushin****^

Wtf was gushing doin at chaels moms house!?

asians don't do that, bells do not exist in their culture, neither do doors, so knocking wasn't a skill he had developed quite yet
