I still think we'll see TRT Vitor show up in Bellator at some point, but if this is his last fight thanks for the memories :gabigoat:
The sole reason I'm an MMA fan today is because I was mesmerized when I saw a Vitor KO on a UFC VHS that I accidentally rented from Blockbuster, because I thought it was the Royal Rumble. I've been on the bandwagon ever since through all the highs and lows, and there have been a lot of lows. Despite that, or maybe even because of it, his career has meant more to me than any other athlete's. He's been knocked down so many times, and always gotten back up.
It's going to be rough watching this on Sunday night:jamesbrownwowww:
I apologize for writing all this in the OP, but I just had to let it out
