    In the below video we have UFC middleweight Chael Sonnen in a feature leading up to his fight with Tim Credeur in 2006 for BoDog. About mid way through the video Sonnen comments on jiu-jitsu, claiming that since he's a Republican, being underneath a man on television isn't something he is comfortable with. Which is obvious, seeing has how he's been submitted five times in his career by "gay" jiu-jitsu fighters like Forrest Griffin, Jeremy Horn, Babalu Sobral, and Paulo Filho. Luckily for jiu-jitsu fans, Sonnen's next fight is against Brazilian jiu-jitsu blackbelt world champion Demian Maia--who is undefeated in MMA with seven of his nine wins coming by way of submission.
