I always thought Vitor should do more reps on the bench press, cut some of that muscle that always gassed him, and drop down to Middleweight. I'm sure he'll still have enough power to KO people.

Last I heard he had yet to pay the fine. Anyone know for sure?? I doubt he'll be able to fight in California if he is still under suspension in Nevada.

Terry's got heavy hands.. but i'm not too confident in his chin.. i'm going Vitor [T]KO r1 or 2..

Christian or otherwise, Jesus isn't going to keep the guy across from you in the cage from punching you in the face. Either way I'm excited to see how he fares against a strong puncher like Terry Martin. I don't see it going all three rounds.

How about you show some respect, SAM. He also eats children so lets give him his total due, ok?! “I like to think of him as the Mike Tyson of MMA without the you know… convicted raping and pillaging.”

You've seen what he can do and is capable of, but his confidence levels are usually at such a low level that any form or bullying will just take the fight out of him. But time and time again we will watch him just to see if he can perform like we know he is/was capable of.

Vitor has great hands, I'm interested to see how his striking will measure up alongside Terry Martin. I wonder what Vitor is trying to primarily focus on at Extreme Couture? Clinch fighting?...

Every time he has a fight I get excited for it. Every time he looks good I talk about the "Old Vitor." When he crushed Takahashi in Pride I was yelling at my tv. I don't know why we all fall for it time after time. “I know, I’m a sucker for punishment.”
