Belfort deserves a shot at Anderson

carnages41

The rematch would be much different.

Kind of like the difference between JDS vs Cain and JDS vs Cain II

Yeah except Belfort gasses worse than most heavyweights.

I see it playing out more or less the same but no way does Belfort dominate Silva like that.

TUF1_

besides Bisping is def getting the title shot now

bluesy

He doesn't even want Anderson, though, lol.

TUF1_

lol he called out Jones for chirst sake lmao

They already fought and Anderson already made him look slow.

mutharasha

what weight class is Vitor? He can't keep switching like this or he's not gonna be considered because has hasn't built up a case for one division. He'd be better off at MW I reckon, less competition for the title

thats what they said about the Cain rematch and look how that turned out

Pengu

Vitor landed almost nothing in their first fight, Anderson was too fast and skilled

If Belfort wants to stay at Middleweight then I think a fight with Chris Weidman or Costa Phillipou makes sense. If he wants to move back up to Light Heavyweight then I think he should fight the winner of Glover Teixeira and Rampage or the winner of Wanderlei Silva and Brian Stann.

you mean seeing Belfort beat Bisping makes you think he's somehow more of a challenge now than he was before?

I don't think any reasonable MMA fan thought Bisping was going to win this. He has never won a single fight against a top 5 opponent.. never happened... ever.. he beats hyped up up'n'comers ever now and then, then gets a shot at a decent fighter and loses. So to me.. Belfort defeating Bisping holds very little value. Hell. what do you think Silva would've done with Bisping? This fight wouldn't even have gotten past the 1st round.

Vitor/Silva isn't the same stylistically as Cain/JDS. Take away Cain's wrestling game and JDS isn't thinking about the takedown the whole fight. I repeat no way Vitor dominates Silva the same way.

Give the man what he wants.
