Right after a first round knockout against Matt Lindland, at Affliction 2, Vitor Belfort challenged the biggest star of the organization, Fedor Emelianenko. Without any confirmation of the company, the Brazilian still wants to face the biggest heavyweight in all times, undefeated for eight years. “We’re waiting now to see if they’ll put this fight on. It’s up to Fedor, he decides everything, he’s in that position. We want challenges and we’re waiting for the answer”, said Belfort.

 

According to Vitor, M-1 wants the fight, but Tom Atencio wants to put Emelianenko against Josh Barnett. “The guys from M-1 wants this fight, but Tom Atencio and the Affliction wants to put him with Barnett, who is their big boy, but I’m waiting. If this fight doesn’t happen at Affliction 3, it can be on the next one”, says. While waiting for a final decision about his next fight, Belfort will start filming a DVD with his biography. “We’re doing a DVD about my career, my story. I’ll film where I lived in the US, Carlson Gracie’s first gym… It’ll be pretty cool, I’ll show my family, me taking my son Davi to the school, my training, everything. I’m going to the United States in April to start this project”, revealed Vitor, waiting for his third child with his wife, Joana Prado.
