"The Dragon" tucks tail. Vitor steps up!

Lyoto Machida has decided against a UFC 152 rematch with Jon Jones. Instead Dana White and the boys have decided to put up "The Phenom" Vitor Belfort in the Toronto main Event slot.

Despite the fact that he is an incredible striker with potentially the fastest hands in MMA, Belfort has not competed at 205 since 2007! That being said he has the explosiveness and aggressiveness to turn the lights out on anyone, this should be very exciting.

The question remains though, what was Lyoto Machida thinking turning down the title shot that he had just stolen away from "Shogun"?
