Sonnen uses those WWE tactics and i've seen some clearly rigged fights. Some of the matches are legit, but the UFC is going in the wrong direction imo.

The problem with the UFC is the same problem that many professional combat sports have.  Without a "season" or playoffs, fights have to be arbitrarily assigned.

With Jones specifically, he's run through everyone in the division, so there really isn't anyone left for him to fight.  The UFC wanted to keep him active, so they threw him Sonnen.  He didn't deserve it, but it'll be a money maker, and Sonnen fits in PERFECTLY for the TUF reality series preceding the fight.  It was a business decision.

The other highly sought after fights are complicated by the fact that they're across weight classes.

Dana is just cheap, offer them 3 to 5 mil for a GSP/Silva fight it'll happen. Same story with Jones Silva, add the money it'll happen.
