Fight fans can watch UFC 187 live online and see how much the drama between Chris Weidman and Vitor Belfort spills over when they finally step into the cage
At the weigh-in this week, Weidman accused his opponent of cheating, a charge that comes thanks to results of Belfort’s out-of-competition drug testing.
Those who want to watch UFC 187 can tune in Saturday. The Fight Pass card starts at 6:40 p.m. ET followed by four fights on the Fox Sports 1 main card starting at 8 p.m. The pay-per-view portion of UFC 187 is scheduled for 10 p.m.
The contest is a bit more dramatic this year given the harsh words from Weidman.
“I’m going to make him pay for it,” Weidman told ESPN.com . “Cheaters never prosper. I’m going to make that little saying stick.”
Belfort reportedly submitted urine results with a slightly higher than normal testosterone level. The acceptable range is between 348 to 1,197 ng/dL, and Belfort’s test had a level of 1,200 ng/DL.
Weidman noted that the high levels were odd considering the 38-year-old Belfort claimed he suffers low testosterone and even was approved for testosterone-replacement therapy.
“I found out his testosterone scores throughout his camp,” Weidman said. “They went from 500 to 1,200, which is, like, extremely, extremely high. This is a guy who was on testosterone replacement therapy because he needed it for so long, yet his testosterone is four times the amount of mine, and I’m 10 years younger. So he’s cheating, and I called him out on that.”
