You call up ol’Oscar
Who’s so bored he’s stressin’
And if you can catch him
When he isn’t cross-dressin’,

And you say
Yeah, we know
We’re both past our primes
But between us we don’t have a
Sock-full of dimes

So let’s start a promotion
And pick out a venue
Then offer some cast-offs and bums
On the menu

And maybe, just maybe,
There’s enough folks
Who won’t see this as a cash-grab
Between rwo old jokes

— Chael Sonnen (@ChaelSonnen) November 25, 2018

Cause they both are shot
Tito’s a mess
And a refrigerator-box
Is Chuck’s new address

I gotta say Tito should take this…🤷🏾‍♂️ Chuck just didn’t look good on the pads at all IMHO. But a fight is a fight. Not pad work https://t.co/ygmPJHVt34
