Vitor Belfort Nearly Became UFC's First Triple Champion at UFC 187

Vitor Belfort came close to becoming the first triple champion in UFC history at UFC 187 in 2015, even producing commemorative t-shirts proclaiming a third title win before the fight. Belfort entered the bout riding a strong recent run of finishes, but was knocked out by Chris Weidman. Now, Alex Pereira — also at age 38 — is mounting the second-ever attempt at a third UFC title, this time as the betting favorite.
