Vitor Belfort plans boxing move, open to fights with Silva, De Le Hoya, and Holyfield

With his deal with ONE Championship coming to a close, Vitor Belfort plans to make the move from MMA to boxing.

Belfort (26-14, 1 NC) has not competed since being defeated by Lyoto Machida in his final fight in the UFC. ‘The Phenom’ signed a deal with ONE in 2019 and was expected to make his promotional debut against Alan Ngalani last year, but the fight never came to fruition.

Talking recently to AG Fight, Belfort said he would be open to former multiple-weight boxing champion Oscar De La Hoya, Anderson Silva, and even Evander Holyfield.
