Luke Rockhold Still Hoping To Get A Rematch With Vitor Belfort
Former Strikeforce middleweight champion Luke Rockhold appeared on UFC Tonight earlier this week to talk to hosts Kenny Florian and Chael Sonnen about his current standing in the UFC’s 185 pound division.
Rockhold said he still wants a rematch with Vitor Belfort next, although he isn’t willing to wait to long to take on “The Phenom”:
“I don’t want to wait that long, of course I want Vitor. I thought me and ‘Jacare’ had a close fight and for some reason he’s ranked above me. So I’d like to rectify that situation. I thought I could finish that fight and I think I could put an ending to it personally.
He’s highly thought of and there’s not many other fights for me, there’s all rematches. Tim Kennedy is there, ‘Jacare’ and Vitor. How long is Vitor going to be out for, that’s the big question for me.”
