Tim Kennedy is striding towards the position of biggest critic of Vitor belfort. The UFC middleweight once again had harsh words for the Brazilian, who he wants to face in his next fight to, in his words, remove his rival from the position of MMA legend.

Kennedy frequently criticizes Belfort, accusing the “Phenomenon” of being a cheat and using banned substances to enhance performance. After Victor's triumph over Dan Henderson, last Saturday (7), Kennedy took to his social networks to ask for the opportunity to challenge the Brazilian.

“I am asking that Vitor belfort be my next fight. Not because he's slower and fatter (and he is), or because he's using a little less steroids, but because he's treated like a legend. He cheats his entire career. He deserves nothing more than a beating and to be removed from the MMA history books,” wrote Kennedy on his Facebook account.

The North American, who hasn't fought since September last year, is sixth in the official rankings of the UFC's 84 kg category, two positions behind Belfort.
