In 2006, fresh off his 1st round KO win over Antony Rea, UFC and Pride FC veteran Vitor Belfort made his highly anticipated boxing debut in Brazil, where he picked up a 1st round KO win over a local amateur boxing champion, Josemario Neves, who was also making his professional boxing debut.
It took Belfort just over 60 seconds to pick up a KO win, after dropping his opponent early on in the fight, before then finishing him moments later.
Belfort would return to the Octagon at Strikeforce: Revenge two months after the pro-boxing win, where he dropped a unanimous decision to the kickboxing veteran.
To date, the fight remains the only professional boxing fight on Belfort’s record.
