Chael Sonnen Darkside of the Cage episode laughed at by Mayhem Miller: “I don’t see the sadness”

Former MMA fighter Jason "Mayhem" Miller questioned the inclusion of Chael Sonnen on the second season of Vice TV's Darkside of the Cage. Miller, who is also featured in his own episode on the series, openly laughed at the premise during an appearance on Bowks Talking Bouts. He argued that Sonnen's successful life and career do not fit the somber, tragic themes typically highlighted by the documentary show.

Miller pointed to Sonnen's high-profile achievements, such as his competitive bout against Anderson Silva and his success as a best-selling author and podcaster. Sonnen, who defeated Miller via unanimous decision back in March 2002 at HFP 1, separately discussed his origins in adopting 'The Bad Guy' persona to earn media opportunities and pursue a UFC title shot.
