Can the new Belfort still be the old Belfort?

Vitor Belfort ready for UFC FN 77

With the now underpowered Vitor Belfort (13–7 UFC) set to face Dan Henderson (9–7 UFC) in a sure to be a highlight fight at UFC Fight Night 77, can the new Belfort be the Old Belfort? Belfort who had been on a tear KO'ing his 3 opponents with TRT until his TRT-less championship bid against the middleweight champion Chris Weidman (9-0 UFC) sounds as if he is ready to get back to his old ways. 


How much longer can the "Phenom" and "Hendo" keep up with each other much less themselves post TRT and stil be big enough to draw the crowds? Can someone like Vitor Belfort still keep up past the rubber match with Dan Henderson? With champions such as Jon Jones and Chris Weidman? And how much of a part does TRT really play in the skills of someone like Belfort himself being a former champion and prodigy himself in years past? But even then most MMA fans are going to be left in specualtion as they now have no idea if those wins were TRT fueled or not minus an exception prior to joining the UFC. (Yes in Pride).

With this rubber match now on it's way, it'll be time to clear the speculations as the TRT-less Vitor Belfort and Dan Henderson are set to face each other with the looming and more than expected pre and post fight test for both fighters. What else could one expect as both have had their finer days with the fuel or are fans themselves being too paranoid and the two are actually good enough to be top class fighters without it? If the "Phenom" were to be busted again would it be time for the UFC to distance themselves from the MMA legend?
