No shit he doesn't want to fight Kennedy. He wants his TS, which he deserves after spectacular KOs against high-ranked Bisping and Rockhold. He could be safely waiting for Silva/Weidman to play out but instead he's taking a risky fight against Hendo (and a bigger pay-day than Kennedy would be probably).
Whatever craziness Belfort spews, he's earned the right to do so. He fought in UFC12 ffs.
DW is talking shit because Belfort is one of the few fighters who doesn't have to do everything the UFC says and he's setting a bad example for the other penguins.

It wasn't just Tim. He turned down fights with Machida and Mousasi too.

Tim Kennedy didn't deserve a fight with Vitor.
And the shit after Silva vs Weidman, you cant blame Vitor when Anderson is saying "no, Weidman champion, blah blah blah, I don't want rematch"
so of course Vitor is going to ask for the title shot then

Who cares?
He destroyed every MW they put him to lose against, now he wants his spot and is being denied for whatever reason.
What he does? Go UP in weight and fight one of the most dangerous LHW, and you STILL bitch.
Go rant about Jones who just ducked a rematch.

Based on what? Weidman has never shown any weakness. Tools you on the ground, tools you on the feet. He outstruck and brutally knocked Anderson Silva out without breaking a sweat, yet Vitor "would kill him". Christ you are dumb.

should have a fight with Moose imo, alot of people want to see that fight, not seeing vitor acting like a "certain type of person he accused Jones of being" and fight a man who is close to retiring and is on a 2 fight losing streak.

You mean two right? Because his last two middleweight fights before Jones were against Rumble and Akiyama.
Also, LOL at the fact that he was "put in to lose" against Bisping or Rockhold. He was a very small underdog in both fights.

this.
Vitor was supposed to the top contender after he beat Bisping.
Dana refused.
Vitor was supposed to be top contender after he beat Luke.
Dana refused.
Vitor is in the limbo because the UFC refuses to acknowledge where he should be.
Simple as that!

im just saying how it is, do you think that current Hendo and Vitor are on the same level? Prime v Prime i def. think Hendo has this but the Man is 43 and his only chance to win is by the H-bomb, and the H-bomb is becoming more obvious with each fight(as in being telegraphed).
i still hope that Hendo wins tho, would be great, probably not going to happen.

Of which division? I doubt he beats Weidman, Vitor has only 1 win over a big athletic wrestler and he got it by a cut on the eyelid, every other time he has lost. Weidman would take Vitor down and beat him up and possibly finish him in a mostly one sided fight.

I thought Vitor should have gotten the shot at Weidman, I can't think of any other champion that didn't have to win at least 1 fight to get a rematch.
