Vitor Belfort Has Eyes on Tommy Fury Next
Vitor Belfort will take on Chad Dawson at Triller’s TRIAD II, however, the former UFC champion has his sights set on a future opponent — Tommy Fury.
Belfort doesn’t think Fury should be focused on the ultra-popular Jake Paul, instead should be looking to fight a real fighter.
“I will fight him anytime,” Belfort told theScore. “Tommy Fury, it’s a shame you were going to fight Jake Paul. Fighting a YouTuber is a shame. (Paul) is a piece of shit. Not as a person —as a fighter. Tommy Fury, I’m up to the challenge,” he continued. “Let’s make this duel.”
The 44-year-old is coming off a TKO win over Evander Holyfield in an exhibition bout in Triller Fight Club Legends 2 back in September.
