As Vitor Belfort lie beneath Chris Weidman, beaten and battered from unanswered punches and elbows, Luke Rockhold sat cageside, enjoying every second of it. Every ounce of respect for the 38-year-old MMA legend is gone for Rockhold, who still believes he was cheated out of a UFC title shot.
Belfort, a past prescribed user of testosterone replacement therapy, blasted Rockhold in the first round of their middleweight bout in May 2013. The highlight reel knockout has seen more play than a 90s Backstreet Boys video.
But for Rockhold, it appears to serve as a cold reminder for what he believes was stolen from him.
