With a broken hand after Affliction’s first edition with a knockout over Terry Martin, Vitor Belfort was scrapped from the second edition due to recover his injury, but the postponement of the event to 2009 was good news for the athlete, able to recover in time to fight again. “My hand is getting better. I’m doing a lot of physical training and physiotherapy. I didn’t care about the postponement, I wasn’t going to fight anyway”, jokes the fighter, the confirmed to TATAME.com he’ll be at Affliction’s next show.

 

“I’ll surely be back. I spoke with Tom Atencio and what they decide is good for me, I’m ready to face anyone. I the want so, I can face Fedor (Emelianenko)”, said the middleweight fighter, that doesn’t know who’ll he fight yet. Before being scrapped due the hand injury, Belfort confirmed TATAME he’d fight Matt Lindland for the middleweight WAMMA belt, but he doesn’t know if Lindland will be his opponent in 2009.
