Vitor Belfort Not Playing Favorites With Sonnen And Silva
UFC fighter Vitor Belfort (19-8) saw his chance to fight for another UFC title taken away due to a shoulder injury, now he just has to sit and wait for the next opportunity while someone else gets their chance.
At this moment Chael Sonnen is that man, he’ll be facing middleweight champ Anderson Silva in August and Belfort can’t pick a favorite to win.
“Each fight is different; I can’t say how it is going to be… For sure Sonnen will be a great challenge, and I’m pretty sure the fight will be tied. They are two good fighters, now is up to us to wait”, said Belfort.
“In a certain way, they were all challenges because everyone has the chance to become a challenge. Me, for sure, will be one too. Now I have to wait for my chance and make it worth”, said the black belt, who is anxious to come back to the hard trainings. “They said I could work on my fitness, I’m almost released to train… I’ll be ready in September, but they didn’t say anything to me… For now I’m just enjoying my time with my kids (laughs)”, concluded Vitor.
