If Jon Jones is the end boss no one can beat at the arcade that attracts a crowd around the cabinet and the next challenger, hoping the next guy can accomplish what the last couldn't. Then Vitor Belfort is the guy who mashed all the buttons he could while wearing a cast on his hand utilizing a hybrid two-finger technique on the joystick that nearly delivered a win. Props are given all around in the warm glow of the 'game over' screen, hands are rested on shoulders and god knows (really, she does) that Vitor did everything he could, but Jon Jones has once again claimed another quarter.

For a moment last night I thought we were going to see a Tim Sylvia/Frank Mir type stoppage, but Big John was calm cool and collected and let the fight rightly go on through the armbar that heaven sent. The fallout looks like this: last night we saw reports coming out of the Bones camp saying he may have nerve damage in his arm, but nothing is confirmed yet. Next, we found out Vitor Belfort fought Jon Jones with a broken hand, which explains the guard pulls. Both of these dudes walked out of the Octagon with some newly unlocked Badass Tokens if you ask me.

"In there, I felt as if there was a point where I don't think physically he could have extended it even more," "I mean, it was popping, and I felt after 25 years that I've never felt that feeling before. I just came to terms with what was going to happen, just thinking, 'Man, I can't believe I'm getting ready to lose this way.'"

"I wasn't close to tapping out at all,"  "I was ready to face the music and get it broken if I had to get it broken. I proved a lot to myself tonight and I'm grateful for it. I haven't gotten x-rays, so I'm not going to sit here and feed into a little pain. But I'll definitely live on to fight another day. Every time I extended my right hand or tried to use an elbow on my right side, I felt it. I felt as if I really didn't have any power in my right side at all but it's a long ways from my heart."

Belfort:

"I had my opportunity," "I think when I heard the pop, I kind of lost the pressure, and he got away. It is what it is. I thought I really had that arm, but he fought through it. He did great"

My wife and dog thought the neighbors were going to call the police on me during this moment from my screaming:

Belfort has at least one hand broken at all times.

RUMOR MILL

Vitor Belfort Did not make it to UFC 152 last night, Tito Ortiz was willing to step up wearing a Belfort costume, despite not having any bones left in his body.

The relationship between Jesus and Vitor Belfort may be fading as it appears Mr. Christ accepted a bribe from Jon Jones prior to his title fight last night.

Mike Goldberg was finally informed this morning that Mark Coleman did NOT fight last night.

Matt Mitrione is trying hard to get the fight with Daniel Cormier.

A very good source tells me that Dana White doesn't think too highly of Bob Arum.

Vitor Belfort fought in UFC 12

Again, these are just rumors, but I have very good sources on all of these except for the last one, don't get your hopes up on that one.

The fight was barely over for 10 minutes before all the excuses came out. Broken ribs, broken foot, broken hand.

Shit according to Vitor he actually fought Bones while suffering from a constant brain aneurysm.

All blame be to Jebus

My sex drive? So that would imply that my willingness to have sex would not have existed but that does not mean I could not have sex. Your way with words astounds me Mr Aoki.

You realize that women do want to have sex though, right? Cause I feel like you're implying that because "I'm a woman" I have no reason nor want to partake in sexual interaction.

Now maybe the women in your life don't want to have sex and let's be honest, who could blame em for not wanting to go near that crusty unused penis of yours? But out here in the real world the ladies love the dick. Go take a shower, buy some Clearasil and see a therapist about your undying social anxiety and you might just fool a woman into making the biggest mistake of her life.

You TRACK what people rate your comments and THEY are the queers? You probably stop by this site ob the hour after you post just like a serial killer goes back to poke a dead body around. Eat a bag of stolen dicks.

It's a fucking shame when your favorite fighter gets a shot at the champ on short notice, takes the fight, nearly does the impossible but comes up short, then announces he had a broken rib, and a broken hand.

Seriously Vitor we love you man, but this was not the best way to approach Jones at all. You could have actually beat him, and of course you didn't get to use your hands at all because of the injury, completely killing your stand up game in the process.

I don't get it, we replace an injured Hendo for a doubly injured Phenom... Congrats are in order for one hell of a fucking try, but you needed to win this one. You'll likely never get another shot at any title again, MW or LHW.
