"They said yes, but did not want to cover the hotel. I thanked them for considering you."
Take a look at the exchange on Twitter:
Chael Sonnen jokingly said that he spoke to the organization to make the fight. However, they did not want to cover the hotel charges. Sonnen is known for interacting with his fans on Twitter and asking them intriguing questions as well as roasting them occasionally. He recently even asked his fans why he was not able to view the tickets he bought off the app.
Sonnen thought they would send him the tickets, so a user had to remind him that the apps don't give out tickets. Instead, they use QR codes for tickets.

Chael Sonnen believes Justin Gaethje vs. Dustin Poirier is the fight to make
Chael Sonnen gives fans his views on the latest developments in the MMA and combat sports world. He recently reacted to Justin Gaethje calling out Dustin Poirier to a fight. The pair had fought once before back in 2018 at UFC on Fox 29. The match was a slugfest and a thoroughly entertaining encounter between two of the best strikers in the division.
In his video, Sonnen asked fans to band together to get him that fight:
"If Justin Gaethje made it clear that he wanted something within the sport, I think that we would have to band together and get it for him. Just as a guy who's given us so much entertainment and never asked for anything."
Sonnen also went on to say that the same can be said in the case of Dustin Poirier and that if the fight did take place, it would be a bludgeoning of a lifetime. The pair have the perfect backstory for a second fight.
