THE RETURN OF VITOR BELFORT
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------[img:370b804ffe]http://www.mmaweekly.com/images/fighters/vitor.jpg[/img:370b804ffe]
MMAWeekly.com learned last Friday that Vitor Belfort will be making his return to the Octagon at UFC 42. That card will most likely take place in Las Vegas in April.
Belfort last competed in the UFC against Chuck Liddell at UFC 37.5. It was a tremendous fight that Belfort appeared to be winning, until he was knocked down by a hard right hand.
Belfort will look to bounce back most likely in April, which would make it a 10 month layoff between fights. No opponent has been mentioned yet. You wonder if Tiger White could be the opponent as the two were suppose to fight at UFC 40, but both guys were trying to bounce back from injuries and the fight never happened. We will continue to follow the story here at MMAWeekly.com.
