LAS VEGAS – Chael Sonnen was curious to see if Ian Machado Garry could handle the heat going into UFC 296. Garry (13-0 MMA, 6-0 UFC) was scheduled to face Vicente Luque (22-9-1 MMA, 15-5 UFC) on Saturday’s main card opener at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, but ended up pulling out due to pneumonia . Prior to his withdrawal becoming official, Garry did not show up to Wednesday’s media day, but his team claimed he would appear in Thursday’s pre-fight press conference . While the media day no-show was likely due to being ill, Sonnen wanted to see how Garry would have reacted to all the heat towards him
