UFC middleweight number one contender, Vitor Belfort has today answered the comments made late last week by former trainer, Shawn Tompkins, claiming the head coach at the TapouT Training Center is lying about details of their split because he took it personally.Speaking via his Twitter account, Belfort said:
“If I think something, but if I have nothing good to speak, I would rather shut up. I think I have the right to choose who prepares me because loyalty and respect I had. I spoke in front of him that I wouldn’t like to continue with his view but he took it to the personal side, but what he said doesn’t match with the truth.”
“He is badly informed, Mike Tyson never trained me. I don’t know where that came from. Life is made of choices. I did mine and he did his.”
Belfort will go head-to-head with “pound for pound” great, Anderson Silva in less than two weeks time at UFC 126 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Many believe “The Phenom” has a great chance of knocking out “The Spider” on the feet judging by recent event’s. Stay tuned to MMABay for more build-up to this epic clash as we get it.
