Refer to Vitor as the former LHW champ?
Especially as he won that fight on a technicality, and was very likely to have lost that fight should that accidental cut not happened.
It's not like the other former champs Jones has fought who legitimately won the belt. Vitor's fight should have been a NC as it was his equipment (glove) that caused the cut to Randy, not his actual fist.
I know it's a minor detail, it's just that when I watched the countdown show, the UFC seemed to do everything they could to dress it up as if Vitor went out and KO'd Randy, which he did not.
You need to watch the Countdown to UFC 152, so you can see how they skipped over the details of how he won the belt. It's like,"Really, guys?"
yup, that was a terrible night for all involved
In Vitor's defence he went to Zuffa after the show & tried to get the match result changed to a "no contest" but Zuffa said no.

I actually didn't know that
