Disturbing Details Emerge From Chael Sonnen’s Arrest

Former UFC fighter Chael Sonnen found himself in troubling last year when he was arrested after allegedly getting physical with a woman. In the wake of the December incident, Sonnen was hit with 11 charges.

Today, TMZ reported that Chael Sonnen allegedly threw a woman into a light fixture, punched a man in the jaw, and punched a security guard in the throat during the wild brawl.

“Chael Sonnen allegedly threw a woman into a light fixture and struck her — causing her to bleed from her face — during a wild fight in a Las Vegas hotel in December 2021 … according to new police documents, obtained by TMZ Sports,” the site reports.

“In the docs, the officers say Julie [Stellpflug] told them Sonnen threw her against a light fixture and socked her in the face. Christopher, according to police, told them the strike caused Julie’s lip to split and bleed.”

Prior to the incident, Chael Sonnen was working as an analyst on ESPN, but he has obviously been removed from that role following the incident.

During his career, Sonnen was a multiple time title contender. But after testing positive for PEDs in 2019, Chael never returned to the UFC, opting instead to join Bellator.

By the sounds of it, Chael Sonnen is in some serious trouble for this Las Vegas incident. He’s set for a court appearance on April 27.
