– Tatame.com recently spoke with Vitor Belfort about his return to the UFC, and possible match with Anderson Silva. Here is what he has to say…
“The problem is that Anderson has too much people around him. I like him, I still like him after everything he said. I still cheer for him, but I think he has a lot of people around him. I’m an employee, he’s an employee too, we can’t pick up fights. Of course that’s a fight I wouldn’t like to do too, I like him a lot, no matter what he says”
