VITOR BELFORT talks Mousasi, Santiago and the UFC

The former UFC light heavyweight champ says Gegard Mousasi is lucky to be in position to be able to call him out. He also says he's not thinking about UFC right now with Jorge Santiago on the horizon.

belfort seems like a very focused guy

Cofield is a Zuffa Cocksucker

First, Tito Randy and Chuck are bigger than Anderson. So Belfort, being a small 205, feels good about fighting Anderson.

Second, Mousasi was a nobody when this video was made. So it is not too crazy for him to dismiss Mousasi like that.

Naw. Dana White hates him. Cofield is a Fedor nuthugger.

But he is not too bad. I like him compared to Mike Straka.

Mike Straka is a Fedor hater that gets hate on by UFC because of his stupidity. Mike Straka is a fucking moron.

Man, I like Vitor Belfort but that is a very bold statement. He lost to Dan Henderson, Tito Ortiz, Randy Couture (twice), Chuck Liddell and Sakuraba, but he is going to knock out Anderson Silva or Mousasi? That is a little strong of a statement. I hope he wins but that is a bit much.

I dont give a fuck what anyone says Vitor belfort is a top tier fighter and mousasi stands 0 chance he would get knocked the fuck out...and thats whats going to happen to anderson silva

[RomanKalani]

noone will ever dispute Vitor got lucky. Of course he got lucky but a TKO is still a TKO. Let go of the Randy vs Vitor fight bro. Its in the past. Yeah Hendo beat Vitor, Anderson beat Hendo and Nate. Vitor's never fought Anderson, thats one of the reasons they matched him. Anderson probably would cream Vitor, we wont know that until it happens. I would much rather see Nate vs Vitor. Maia sucks balls and so does Kimbo.

[forbesfoofighters]

there was not one logical reason for him to get the shot over hendo. especially after hendo handed him his tits when they fought. it's probably a good thing for you as a belfort fan anyways anderson would have just been teasing him before he knocked him out with a lazy jab shades of forrest griffin because NOBODY likes to charge forward like vitor belfort. and everybody knows vitor never had shit on couture he wasn't even winning the fight a win is a win but even vitor can admit he got lucky.

[RomanKalani]

I dont care if Randy's eye was re injured. Vitor beat him via TKO. Sonnen is injured, did you not see his face? it was also confirmed on the UFC website. I actually thought that Nate or Hendo deserved the title shot before Vitor but it never happened. Vitor needed to prove he deserved the title shot which he hadnt done. It doesnt matter what we think, only what the UFC thinks and obviously they gave Vitor the shot for a reason. To hear you say its only because he's a puncher is stupid.

[forbesfoofighters]

A) if youd read what i said more closely i said vitor only RE- injured randys eye that ricco rodriguez injured. (B) sonnen isn't injured maia got the shot because he subbed sonnen in 2 minutes last year. (C) kimbo is more deserving of a title shot as he actually fights at heavyweight you can't really say vitor fight's at middleweight so it was one big joke that he was the #1 contender. and (D) just like chuck is 2-1 against randy randy is 2-1 against vitor "one round" belfort. im glad he's hurt.

[RomanKalani]

You bag on Vitor for being just a puncher and yet Maia is just a BJJ guy with no standup??? wtf... He only got the title shot because Chael is injured and Nate coming off the loss. Why would Dana White give Vitor the title shot?? because he punches hard? fark mate, if thats all it took to get a title shot, Kimbo deserves a go at Lesnar. A cut is a cut and by doctors stoppage, thats TKO. Do you know what a TKO is? yeah Couture came back and monstered Vitor. It happens. Its happened to Randy.

[forbesfoofighters]

why does he have a shot at anderson silva. because he has a hard punch and throws it wildly? he's lucky he isn't fighting him anymore he never deserved the shot to begin with demian maia is a great replacement. vitor is the most mentally weak champion ever no contest.
