“I can beat them in the same night and do even better than (Floyd) Mayweather. In the first round one comes, in the second comes the other and so on. It's a challenge. Just missing the 'Triller' Bring the two brothers and I'll finish them off. I can knock them both out quickly”, revealed Belfort.
Last Sunday (6), Logan Paul faced one of the biggest names in boxing history, Floyd Mayweather. The YouTuber gave up for eight rounds and, as it was an exhibition fight, he did not emerge defeated from the confrontation. Now, Vitor belfort reveals that he did not attend the fight and accuses the North American of merely 'grabbing' the boxer.
“I didn't watch the fight, because my time is very rare and I won't waste it. I'm in the training period (for the fight) and I'm not going to waste it. They told me he just grabbed Mayweather, right? So I can take him down, just like his brother”, concluded the Brazilian.
A professional since 1996, Belfort is considered, by many, as one of the greatest fighters in the history of MMA and has a record of 26 wins, 14 losses and one unsuccessful fight in his career. At 44 years old, the 'Phenomenon' has already had a professional boxing match and, in 2006, knocked out Josemario Neves.
