1. Vitor Belfort
Reports are now indicating that Vitor Belfort’s career is not over. It sounded like he was retiring after his last fight, but evidently he was just being poetic about closing chapters in his life on Instagram. The next chapter of his life appears to involve fighting as well.
Pre-USADA Vitor, or “TRT-Vitor”, however is gone. That version of Vitor Belfort was ripped and looked like he could pull Jon Jones’ arm right off of his body (he came as close as anyone else has at UFC 152).
Belfort at UFC 204:
But Belfort has been dogged by steroid accusations his whole career, and has been the poster child for fighters receiving sketchy testosterone-replacement therapy exemptions.
If Belfort is still around he could be a player in the middleweight division, considering he holds victories over the current champ (Bisping) and the previous champ (Rockhold). Unfortunately Belfort is only 1W-2L since USADA testing began.
