Filed under: News , UFC , Videos RIO DE JANEIRO – Vitor Belfort’s idea to create a “Legends League”  inside the UFC might not exactly have consensus support in the MMA community, but he’s got the support of at least one UFC Hall of Famer. Retired since late 2015, former PRIDE heavyweight champion and former UFC interim heavyweight champion Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira is on board with Belfort’s idea of getting people within the same age range to fight each other in the octagon. He doesn’t, however, agree with the tweaks he suggested, like “maybe bigger gloves, no elbows, no knees, and more time to rest.” “It makes sense,” Nogueira told MMAjunkie during a launch party for Season 2 of “ The 3rd degree ,” which will be available on UFC Fight Pass on April 4
