About the cancellation of my UFC 184 fight.

I would like to say that, as everyone else, I’m very disappointed with all this situation.
For exactly one year, I have seen my dream to make history in UFC with my 3rd world title in a different weight category postponed.

Here are some facts:

- UFC had to reschedule the middleweight world title content 3 times because of my opponent’s injuries. (from May/14 to July/14- Weidman had a knee surgery, from December/14 to February/15 - Weidman had his hand broken, from February/15 to probably May/15- Weidman had his ribs hurt)

- MY FOCUS WAS ALWAYS THE MIDDLEWEIGHT BELT AND I CLIMBED THE LADDER TO ACHIEVE MY POSITION.

- This is why I won't fight for an interim, but if UFC gives 8 weeks and the middleweight Belt available for dispute I fight with anyone from the ranking. Not for an Interin, But the Middleweight Belt!

- I’ve been in this sport for 19 years and I have never let UFC down.

- I accepted to fight for the Light Heavyweight Belt right after the my sister got kidnapped and I still won the world championship.

- I offered myself to fight in the UFC 152 against Jon Jones with less than 8 weeks to prepare myself to the bout and I had exactly the same injury my opponent has now and still I stepped up to the fight.

I would like to thank UFC, the press and fans support, always.
Focused in the Middleweight Belt!

He says he'll fight anyone as long as he gets 8 weeks to prepare and the fight is for the actual belt.

8 weeks sounds reasonable to me, but demanding the belt is reaching

At his age and with the TRT issue its the best move.

Vitor was the one who originally pulled out of the May/14 to July/14 fight, not Chris.

I don't see how he can fight someone other than Weidman for the actual belt. Guess he's going to wait until Weidman heals up. Or maybe the UFC gives him that Anderson Silva money to take another fight.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Dana said they have another fight for Vitor if hes willing to accept it. I wonder if its Rockhold. Hes been very silent during all of this. Whats the deal with Jacare tho? Why are ppl mentioning his name. Didn't he drop out the Romero fight because he was sick?

He probably would've gotten the RNC if the other dudes didn't try to stop him.

@Mowgli How would you rate this dude's BJJ

Vitor vs Romero

I would prefer a fight against Mousasi, but both are great options.

 

[The Infamous]

Speaking of Mousasi, I think he would give yesterday's Anderson that work. If Anderson's up for the challenge, I still think a fight with Moose would be a great match-up.

Hes good. He was very calm in taking positions and transitioning from submissions to sweeps and back to a submission. A deadly one like it was nothing. This indicates experience. Im gonna put him at purple belt at Least. That sweep he did when ol boy tried to stand back up was

Already had the ACL in position to be snapped by the time he fell.

Still wouldnt be surprised if hes a blue belt though based on the way he was acting.

 

[Mowgli]

Edit. i researched the bastketball fight.

Hes a purple belt.
