Pics: Vitor Belfort Is ‘Back’ To Being Ripped Again
The physique of Vitor Belfort seems to be an ever changing subject. From his early days as a massive teenager fighting as far back as UFC 12, to his post-steroid bust years as a flabby light-heavyweight in Cage Rage, and then came the TRT (testosterone replacement therapy) era. A shredded ‘Phenom’ was described by Joe Rogan as ‘an alien with muscles on his teeth”. Most recently a shrivelled looking Belfort was dwarfed and smashed by Chris Weidman at UFC 187.
A rubber match with Dan Henderson in Brazil is now on the horizon, and Belfort has been training hard for the November 7 bout. Recent posts to Belfort’s Instagram account not only show him grinding in the gym, but also that he’s managed to pack on a few more pounds since getting all the TRT cold turkey over and done with.
The Brazilian knockout artist has a long history of violence with the UFC and Pride FC mainly, and looks to keep his career alive against an opponent who managed to pull off a huge win against Tim Boetsch this past June. ‘Hendo’ was knocked out by a huge head kick against Belfort in Brazil in 2013, and ‘The Phenom’ will no doubt try to repeat that result in November.
