Former UFC title challenger Chael Sonnen retired from fighting yesterday evening following his loss to Lyoto Machida at Bellator 222 and Tito Ortiz couldn’t be happier.<\/p>\n

At least so it would seem. ‘The Huntington Beach Bad Boy’ took to Instagram<\/a> where he posted a video of Chael Sonnen’s knockout loss, this while congratulating ‘The Dragon’.<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/ByuEAwsnheo\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link<\/p>\n

“Thank you Lyoto Machida!!!!! The only reason I posted this!!! Just so you people know that Chael said some things about my family pre fight.”<\/em> explained Tito Ortiz in the post. “I beat him and he came to my dressing room after the fight and said if we are cool? I told him to apologize at the press conference and we would be good. He didn\u2019t. A month after the fight he started talk shit about my kids. Sorry people I don\u2019t know how you were raised but another person should not talk about a mans family. Period.”<\/em><\/p>\n

As seen in the above video, Chael Sonnen ate a jumping knee from Lyoto Machida that sent ‘The American Gangster<\/a>‘ crashing to the canvas in round two. From there, ‘The Dragon’ would unleash some solid ground and pound which forced an end to the fight.<\/p>\n

As for former UFC light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz, the MMA legend has not competed since defeating Chuck Liddell via first round knockout under the Golden Boy Promotions banner in November.<\/p>\n

In his most previous effort at Bellator 170, Ortiz had scored a submission victory over the aforementioned Chael Sonnen.<\/p>\n

In April of 2019, it was announced that Tito Ortiz had signed a multi-fight agreement with the Combate Americas promotion. He is expected to make his promotional debut later this fall.<\/p>\n
