He wasn’t done and continued to mock the UFC Light Heavyweight champion 

After this, ‘American Gangster’ returned to trolling ‘Bones’ over his driving by talking about law enforcement’s inability to impound shoes.

As he assumed “Dum-dum” couldn’t understand what he was saying he emphatically stated “So WALK AWAY.”

Later, Sonnen put out a Tweet saying how every driver can get dividend discounts from the car insurance companies if Jones “walks away.” He branded the Tweet a “News Flash.”

The tweets seem like a rant and completely miss the point of ‘Bones’ walking away. Is ‘American Gangster’ trying to get Jones to call him out for a fight? A certain section of fans will hope this is not the case, as ‘Bones’ dominated Sonnen in their only meeting 7 years ago at UFC 159. At the time Sonnen 36, lost via first-round TKO.
