UFC-126 Anderson Silva v. Vitor Belfort

UFC 126 is the event where Anderson Silva loses his belt, a championship he has held for 12 fights.

Anderson Silva has all the tools and a very relaxed style. His style is well known and predictable. Chael Sonnen was moments away from defeating Anderson Silva when he got caught. That is like a big bull's eye over Anderson Silva proclaiming he is ripe for defeat. Anderson was lucky last time, and that's the first time in a while that can be said. He doesn't take Vitor seriously and that will be his undoing.

Vitor Belfort has had mental toughness problems in the past, but his recent streak of calm cool dissection of tough opponents demonstrates he is ready for Anderson Silva. Vitor trained with Anderson and so he knows tactics and training from inside the other camp.

Look for Vitor to explode on Anderson in the opening minutes, look for the opening, and rush right over Anderson to a KO victory. He defeated Rich Franklin in the same manner, he will be patient and pick his spot.
