http://www.bloodyelbow.com/2009/7/29/967273/jornal-do-brasil-reports-that Jornal do Brasil reports that Vitor Belfort has been added to the September 12th Bitetti Combat event in Rio de Janeiro, in a bout against French journeyman Moise Rimbon. Paulo Filho was originally set to face Alex Schoenauer, but is now listed as fighting "Edwin Dweeze." According to Tatame, a public event is scheduled for August 3rd where the fighters will be present and the governor of Rio will announce the complete card. This is going to be an incredible show if all - or even most - of the scheduled fights actually happen: Bitetti Combat September 12, 2009 Maracanãzinho Gymnasium Maracanã, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Main Card Vitor Belfort (18-8) vs. Moise Rimbon (14-8-3) Antonio Rogerio Nogueira (17-3) vs. Alex Stiebling (18-10-1) Ricardo Arona (13-5) vs. Marvin Eastman (16-9-1) Paulo Filho (16-1) vs. Edwin Dewees (35-13) Pedro Rizzo (16-9) vs. Jeff Monson (31-8) Undercard Luciano Azevedo (15-7) vs. Milton Vieira (9-6-1) Henrique "Chocolate" Nogueira (6-4-1) vs. Eduardo Pamplona (12-2) Cassiano Tytschyo (13-6) vs. Leandro "Batata" Silva (13-5) Leonardo "Chocolate" Nascimento (7-5-1) vs. Glover Teixeira (6-2) Luciano Corea "Yzzy" (1-1) vs. Alexandre "Pulga" Pimental (7-0) Vitor Miranda (4-1) vs. Fabio Maldonado (9-2)
Man this is an awesome card! Arona is finally back!!! And Monson vs Rizzo? Yeah il have some of that. Who knows we may get to see Filho vs Belfort some time down the line.
Nice; Filho and Arona both fight on my birthday. Hate to say it, but with those two and several other of the fighters the question needs to be asked; will they be testing for drugs?
Wow Amaury Bitteti must really be that good to have a promo under him. I remember when he was regarded as the best of Carlsons guys before Frey pummeled him
Its in Brazil. Its practically Vale Tudo. I highly doubt it. And both men have been stacked for years.
