Anderson Silva vs. Vitor Belfort Likely For UFC 108
Posted by  on 09.25.2009





According to a new report, the UFC is putting together a middleweight championship bout between current title holder Anderson Silva and Vitor Belfort for UFC 108. The event is expected to be held on January 2nd in Las Vegas. Verbal agreements are in place, however the fight has yet to be made official.

Silva has been UFC Middleweight Champion for three years, and is coming off his non-title victory over Forrest Griffin at UFC 101. Belfort made his return to the company with a first-round KO of former middleweight champ Rich Franklin last weekend at UFC 103.

This is awesome! I'm sure the usual gang will come on here and whine "what about henderson, what about marquadt, what about okami"..ect ect. F*ck that, this is the fight I want to see.

As much as I would like to see this fight, I think its a crock of shit that Hendo is getting bypassed. Not cool....

WTF what about henderson, what about marquadt, what about okami

Anderson Silva by Murder in Round 1 in 15 seconds.

Kinda hard to give Dan a title shot with no contract

I have wanted to see this fight since Belfort KTFO'd Lindland. He can give Silva a fight and all you guys pushing for other fights STFU because the last time you guys wanted to wait for a superfight, Gonzaga humiliated Cro Cop.

So Anderson/Vitor and probably Hendo/Nate. Sounds like two exciting matches to me.

Hendo deserves it. at the same time im down for this

Should be an awesome fight, I hope to god Belfort kills Silva and finally proves how overrated he is

Posted By: Shawno420 (Guest)  on September 26, 2009 at 12:34 AM

 
 
If Vitor's ground game was as good as his striking, then i'd give him a chance. but there is no way he can out-strike Silva.

This is the fight I wanna see. I say have winner of Hendo/Marquardt fight the winner of this fight, which they'll probably do anyway. Sucks for Hendo and Marquardt both.

What about Hendo? What about Nate the Great?

What about me?

What about Raven?


Posted By: Raven (Guest)  on September 26, 2009 at 04:21 AM

 
 
Excellent. Dan and Nate can wait. New matchup is better than a rematch. (though Belfort becoming #1 middleweight contender based on a catchweight victory is a little odd)

I thought Silva was supposed to be having some type of surgery done?

WTF what about henderson, what about marquadt, what about okami

Posted By: Hawk (Guest) on September 25, 2009 at 09:52 PM
Okami hasn't looked like champion material since his win over the late Evan Tanner and well you wanna be put to sleep by LNP? Hendo and Nate The Great do deserve shots but heres why they aren't getting them yet A Silva Win Nate Marquardt TKO (Punches) Rd 1 4:50, A. Silva Win Dan Henderson Submission (Rear Naked Choke) rd 2 4:52 Those results are why.

I'm just curious how much many money bins Dana had to give Spider to take this fight.

Posted By: Butters4Prez (Guest)  on September 26, 2009 at 03:10 PM
