Vitor Belfort wants his money for his canceled bout against Uriah Hall from UFC Fight Night 124. Belfort posted to Instagram about the fight, which was canceled after Hall had a health scare, saying that he’s “waiting for my payment” for the show.
“After all,” Vitor Belfort wrote, “I did what had to be done (I trained, I was present on fight week, I made weight…) Where is the respect?”
Dana White said after the event, “Vitor could have fought tonight. We got him a fight and offered him a fight, and he turned it down. We also got him a fight in Boston, and he turned that down too. (UFC matchmaker Mick Maynard) and those guys know. I just got back from vacation, but Vitor could have fought tonight. He turned it down. He didn’t want to fight in Boston either.”
White added (per MMAjunkie), “…we will get Vitor a fight. He wants to fight (Michael Bisping) in London. That’s the fight he wants. We’ll see. I don’t know. I’ve still got to get back and home and get in a room and figure it out. But I’m not opposed to it, no.”
