Former undisputed UFC light heavyweight champion and heavyweight tournament champion, Vitor Belfort has finally received an induction into the promotion’s Hall of Fame this summer — landing in the Pioneer Wing ahead of next month’s ceremony during International Fight Week.
Belfort, revealed as one of the most devastating and ferocious strikers to ever compete in the promotion, is best known for his staggering ability to finish fights once placing his opponents in relative danger.
Departing the promotion back in 2018 after a staggering knockout loss of his own against compatriot, Lyoto Machida in his native Brazil, Belfort would confirm his retirement from active mixed martial arts competition in the time since.
