Vitor Belfort won’t call it quits after UFC 187: ‘I will be back at full strength’

The 38-year-old veteran, who failed to win the middleweight championship on Saturday night, suffering a first-round TKO loss against undefeated champion Chris Weidman, will likely get back inside the Octagon in the future.

On his Instagram page, the former UFC light heavyweight champion said he’s upset with his performance, promising to "be back in full strength".

I am always very happy, but I confess that I am still upset with my performance at UFC 187 I was going very well. I'd like to thank all of my family, friends, team, sponsors and fans for all the love and support.
