UFC on FX 7: Belfort vs. Bisping Bold Predictions
The first UFC event of 2013 will take place in the promotions new favorite spot, as middleweights Vitor Belfort and Michael Bisping square off in the UFC on FX 7 main event. The Brazilian Belfort will fight in his home country against the Englishman Bisping, who is trying to finally earn himself a title shot.

My brain child is MMAValor, something I had wanted to do for a long time and finally it’s here. Been an MMA fan since TUF season one (play catch up all the time) and the obsession started to grow like a weed and as the sport grows so does the love for the sport. I’m a jack of all trades, a very organized person that rides an emotional roller coaster daily.Subscribe
