Vitor was not a number 1 contender. The UFC had no other option at the time because Silva dominated every one else (Sonnen was a joke. Took steroids still couldn't beat a hurt Silva).
This is a perfect fight for both fighters. Vitor will come for a KO, and SexyAma will come to bang as well. Vitor should have went through this gauntlent in the begining before his title shot.

I think this is a decent fight... both guys are coming off losses - but at least Akiyama was "in" the fights he lost, whereas Belfort was blown out by Silva. I would have prefferred Belfort Vs Bisping, but I'm still holding out hope that the Sonnen situation will be sorted out so they can do Sonnen/Bisping.

I like the matchup, though I feel Vitor will be more cautious in his standup, if only because it seems Akiyama is in a must-win situation...
