Vitor Belfort

[zxyss25]

Is the only fighter I can think of to have 3 title shots in 3 different divisions

He only won 1, but if he would have beat Randy Couture at HW instead of LHW

Then if he would have beat Weidman at MW

He would be champ - champ = champ

Frankie Edgar could ne next if he wins a few at bantamweight

Maybe Aldo as well, if he decides to go back up to LW - especially if McGregor somehow gets the belt and he can get his Red Panty rematch

That Vitor win vs Randy was complete bullshit. Vitor won in the first minute from a cut.

Randy went on to beat his ass right after that, and had already beaten him before at HW

Thats a big thing not to mention making a thread like this.

Edit: Clearing up

He didn’t even really beat Randy at LHW.

It sounds like you think that Randy/Vitor I was for the HW title, but it wasn't. Their fight at UFC 15 was a number one contender match to determine who would get the next shot.

That KO to Korean Zombie didn't help, but his overall record can potentially still put him just one win away from title shot at 135

Fight with Randy at HW wasn't for title. He did win a HW tournament before that which isn't a belt, but isn't not a belt either.

Conor will probably be the first in all honesty.

Several have had 2 though.

Machida
Florian
Aldo if he fights Cejudo
Holm
Shevchenko
Nunes
Cormier
Penn
Couture
Vitor
Conor
Pettis
Cejudo
GSP
Sonnen
Joanna
Frankie

I'm probably forgetting a few aswell that's just from memory.
