Should Vitor Belfort Retire from the UFC After TUF Brazil Wraps Up?

Vitor Belfort picked up an impressive submission victory over Anthony Johnson in their UFC 142 co-main event. 

With the win Belfort has won seven of his last eight fights. His only loss during that run was to UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva. 

At just age 34, Belfort has been in the UFC longer than anybody on the current roster as he made his debut back in 1997. During his on-and-off UFC career, Belfort has picked up victories over Wanderlei Silva, Randy Couture and Rich Franklin. 

Belfort has also won a UFC tournament and captured the UFC light heavyweight title. 

While Belfort is still one of the top contenders in the UFC, over the last couple of days leading up to UFC 142, there have been talk of retirement from him. 

Belfort has a coaching gig on the inaugural season of The Ultimate Fighter: Brazil against Wanderlei Silva. Following the season and a matchup with Silva, we could very well see Belfort retire from the sport.

If Belfort does decide to go that route, no one would blame him.

Although he is still very competitive, he is getting up there in age.

He's accomplished a lot in the sport and is one of the few guys who have found success in multiple eras of the UFC. 

If Belfort chose to retire after TUF: Brazil, no one could blame him for it. 

From a fan's standpoint it is easy to say Belfort should not retire. Especially considering that he is still a world-class fighter. 

But considering Belfort still has his health intact and has nothing else to prove in the sport, it could be the right time for him to go.
