Chael Sonnen offered up some words of encouragement - in his own way - to Urijah Faber recently. Faber was defeated by Renan Barao at UFC 149: Faber vs. Barao in a bout for the interim UFC bantamweight title.

"Sorry you lost. I have no idea what it's like, I'm UNDEFEATED. Chael," Sonnen sent to Faber.

Faber replied back, "Haha," and added on Twitter, "thanks (Sonnen) for the encouraging text."

Sonnen was defeated by UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva for a second time. It's good to see that the former contender hasn't lost his sense of humor in defeat.
