This is verry bad News not just do to the fact that
it will have an effect on the fight but the fact that
she could be in danger or the worst one could think of

My Prayers go out to The Belfort Familia :yinyang:

Any updates with Vitors sister? Hope the best for him, her and their family.

I undestand loss a bit. I was young but my aunt was murdered by a serial killer and as you get older it really makes you wonder why things happen and why people do the things that they do.

I sincerely hope that nothing has happened to her.

When Belfort steped in the Octogon
I choice Him to Win But can't belive the Fight
Ended so quick.

If that would have happened the 1st time
no one would have said anything.
But beacuse it was so quick this Time alot
of People did not like it. (AMAZING)

 

[James Kovacich]

I think they're both stand up guys and if Randys eye is OK, there will be a re-match without a hesitation.

Ya that really wasn't much of a fight. It isn't like he landed a solid punch and opened him up. It was definitly a freak happing.

 

[spartanmachine]

Yeah there needs to be a rematch, thing is when they do get to fight again Randy will be even older, maybe 41.

But if that would have happend the 1st Time most
people would have said they new thats what would have happend,cause Vitor was so Domonint.

I do Belive there should be a Re- Match.
# 3 may complete their story.

Definately a rematch! It was an unfortunate thing that happened to Randy. That was a nasty cut, and it definately would have been a problem for him.

Is Vasaline on the face not allowed in UFC? It seems to me a little lubricant or just some sweat would have prevented the cut. Just curious.

 

[JDenz]

No the cut was from the cornor of the glove and it cut into the eye so nothing could have really prevented it.

 

[kenpo12]

Ahhh, I see. That sucks!

 

[JDenz]

Ya even Vitor did not celeabrate much you could tell he felt like he didn't really won. He must have not really hit him that hard at all because he was stunned they stopped the fight
