For Vitor Belfort‘s fight career, everything is in god’s hands, and the UFC’s.
So even if he beats Yushin Okami at UFC 122 on Nov. 13 in Germany in what will likely be a No. 1 contender bout, Belfort won’t be expecting an immediate title shot.
“You know what I’m expecting? I’m expect Jesus, bro, every day. I’m expecting Jesus to come into my life and choose my path. Whatever out there is good for me,” Belfort told Ariel Helwani Thursday on The MMA Hour. “For sure, I want the title but the decision doesn’t belong to me. I’ve been there. I won the [heavyweight] title when I was 19 years old. I won in a different division in 2004 (light heavyweight). I’ve accomplished so many things in my career.I don’t let titles and positions and fame overcome my life and take over me.”
