With all of the fight announcements this past week, this one has to be on top of most peoples wishlists. The UFC has not yet officially announced the fight, but both Vitor Belfort and Cung Le have spoken about the fact that they will be facing eachother at UFC 139 in San Jose in November.
This fight will be Le’s UFC debut. He held a record of 7-1 under the Strikeforce umbrella. Le is set to play a lead role in the upcoming action film Dragon Eyes with Jean-Claude Van Damme, produced by Joel Silver
Cung Le spoke with HeavyMMA.com about his upcoming fight with Vitor Belfort.
I’ll be in San Jose for UFC 139 and I’m fighting Vitor Belfort. I’m very excited and honored to be a part of the UFC. I want to thank Dana White and Lorenzo Fertitta for the opportunity and I’m going to fight my heart out. What Vitor says doesn’t bother me. He can talk all he wants. We’ll take care of business on November 19. Let him talk. I don’t like to talk so he can do all the talking. I’ll let him have that job and we will work it out in San Jose. Vitor is very dangerous, but I’m very dangerous too. We have two dangerous guys in the ring and we are going to see which one of us is more dangerous.
