belforts sister? wtf? - Page 2

There's no real way to say this without Vitor fans jumping on me, but:

Vitor is not the only fighter to deal with personal tragedy. Gabriel Gonzaga had one of his children die and his wife go to the brink of death before his fight against Kevin Jordan, and he still managed to fight and even win. While what happened to Priscilla Belfort is unquestionably horrible and a true tragedy, Vitor's fans cannot continue to pin all of his troubles on this incident forever. People react to tragedy in different ways, I understand that. And I'm not saying that Vitor should "just get over it" or something simplistic and stupid like that; but every time he doesn't perform the story of Priscilla comes out. It just gets disappointing after a while when every ill in his life is related to this one tragic occurrence.

yes it would, losing a family member is a horrible thing and i give my condolence to the belfort family but vitor did not seem motived in most fights before his sister went missing,vitor really hasn't been right since the sak fight

Unless you know for sure or it is a confirmed source, please keep things like this to yourself. This is how internet rumors and such get started.

Ha! At the Chuck with the Mr. T beard. Please don't give him any ideas

It was the phrasing, when I read it I had it backwards, like you were guessing that with success comes pain.

Unless the same thing happened to you, neither you nor I have could possibly fathom how traumatic that would be.
