Look who pops up from the sewers of the UG.

Maybe now Chael will only get triangled 8-10 times instead of 10-10.

3 of his 15 losses are to triangle. 4 if you count the Anderson fight where he tapped to the armbar.

Wasn't it a triangle in that fight?

Depends who you ask. People who hate Chael will swear up and down it was a triangle and that he always taps to triangles. If you watch the video he was in the middle of the step over triangle defense when Anderson grabs his arm and heaves at which point he taps. As far as his record goes it's scored as a "triangle armbar" Either way, 4 out of 15 losses still isn't a significant number. He had 3 losses to armbar too (not counting the Anderson fight)

can you point to any other top ranked fighter(he challenged 3 times for ufc gold) that has 3 or 4 losses by the same submission hold?

Chael Sonnen.

Sorry @MMAHAWK I should extrapolate. Chael's known as the guy who submits to triangles, but he's tapped to armbar as many times. It's more a symptom of him being a dominant wrestler than it is of him being grossly deficient in anything.

All of Rumble's losses have been by RNC.

Actually in his match vs Dan Hardy he lost face by refusing to stand with him.
