Chael Sonnen is getting destroyed on YouTube. People are clicking on his videos, but they’re not watching them. They’re just forcing him to deal with his reprehensible take on the Raja Jackson disgusting display.

Chael thought he’d be super cool and “take the heat” by being the contrarian badass, defend his friend, and actually get views on his dead channel in the process. Instead, he’s become a pariah in the MMA YouTube community and his already dying channel (he doesn’t actually say anything in 65% of his videos) will become even more irrelevant.

He was soooo lucky to get that happenstance invite to CJI2. As we wrote about, this was a desparately needed distraction that broke the string of YouTube comments berating him.

But there’s still a strong force of commenters who will not let this go. Hopefully the onslaught continues.

It’s been rough times for the sunflower from West Linn. He defended Raja Jackson attempting to murder a pro wrestler who had no idea Raja would pick him up to power slam him unconscious. Then he doubled down on his defense with a second video.

YouTube commenters have since cancelled Cousin Chael. But amidst a flurry of MMA videos nobody cared about (where commenters poured on reminders of how defeated Chael was), Chael got a lucky lifeline: Gable Stevenson pulled out and he got called in as a replacement opponent for Craig Jones at CJI2.

Of course, Chael lost miserably (twice), getting choked unconcious by the same “buggy” choke from Jones.

But it doesn’t matter, the event marked a huge break in the YouTube – Raja Jackson comment chain.

Chael Sonnen thought he was sooo cool. He was going to be the ultra contrarian and defend Raja Jackson and draw a ton of “heat” and come out the big winner in the end.

Well, his channel’s over now. His channel was always hilariously bad, but now all anyone is doing is clicking his next video, pausing it, and then commenting that they haven’t forgot (which, by the way, constant one second views are horrible for a YouTube channel).

Chael’s done and he’s going to have to apologize at some point. The famous convicted fraudster isn’t getting away with this one. Not with YouTube MMA on the scene.

He’s got the grift of gab and it’s coming back to haunt him. Chael Sonnen’s YouTube channel is still alive, but it’s now more of a content wasteland where Chael churns out video after video to squeeze every dollar he can. But clearly Chael has burned his bridges with subscribers and fans.

You can’t trust the guy to not waste your time with a long meandering story that goes nowwhere. Too many clickbait titles and too many wordsmithing shenanigans now mean that people won’t click his videos for fear of being looped into another content grift.

Chael had the potential to grow an enormous channel (1.2 million subscribers), but his content is another grift and so nobody watches him anymore.
