Quick read

Vitor Belfort entered UFC 187 believing he would become the first three-division champion in UFC history, even releasing commemorative T-shirts before the fight with Chris Weidman. Belfort arrived on a strong run of finishes and tested with an extraordinarily high testosterone level of 1,200 ng/dL, yet Weidman stopped him by ground-and-pound after surviving an early onslaught. Now, eleven years later, Alex Pereira is making the second-ever attempt at a third UFC title at the same age of 38, but as the favorite.
