Respect bro, keep it up fellow Whitebelt

I was talking about how there isn't really anybody for Silva to face. I also stated why in my last comment.
Didn't Dana also say thought that Belfort wouldn't get a rematch against Jones, or was that only after Vitor's post-fight speech? It's hard to keep up with the timelines on all this stuff.

I think Belfort/Rockhold would be a good #1 contenders match to make. But once again, I don't mind if Vitor would get a title shot right now either.

Yeah I totally agree and thought it was bullshit that a win by Bisping = title shot but a win by Belfort = SF champion.

Belfort had the misfortune of not being born to a unconquested demographic of MMA..err I mean UFC. Now if he was English, Latino, or asian the rematch would have been made.

Meh. Vitor fought Akiyama next. Nowhere near the level that Bigfoot is on. Then Johnson, who screwed himself. The Bisping win was good but MW has more challengers in the mix than HW, so Vitor's gonna have to get another good one or two wins before he gets his next shot.

This right here. Dana hadn't really cornered the Mexican market and had been pretty vocal about plans for Cain and gaining that market. It was more business than anything. It's not like Dana was so upset about Cain losing the first time because e was actually buds to him lol.
