After Gegard Mousasi reveals that he would face Vitor Belfort at Affliction 3, we went after the Brazilian to know his expectations for the fight, which would happen on August 1st, but the it was new to Vitor. "I don’t know anything, they are saying that, but there’s nothing right yet. I’m waiting the confirmation to see who we will fight", said Belfort, who was surprised with Mousasi’s victory over Mark Hunt, at the Dream 9.

 

"I didn’t saw... How was it?", asked Belfort, who praised the quick victory by submission. "Good, huh? Showed that he’s tough on striking... Very good... Now I have to see if he’ll get down to middleweight", said the Brazilian, who doesn’t consider going up to face Mousasi, who decided to move up after knocking Ronaldo Souza out. "Who defines this isn’t him. I fight at 185lbs. If they want to do this fight at 185lbs, it’s done, otherwise I see no option to go up, even because he isn’t a challenge, a man with much name. To go up, I don’t see him as a challenge. I want to fight with him in the weight he was champion (at Dream), then I think its worth", decreed Vitor. Stay tuned in TATAME to know more about the Afliction 3.
