Cung Le "blessed" with UFC 139 booking, particularly with Scott Coker's approval

Former Strikeforce middleweight champion Cung Le never expected to be in the UFC, but he always hoped he could find a way.

But Le, a longtime friend of Strikeforce CEO Scott Coker, preferred to remain loyal to his promoter rather than jump ship.

But now that the two companies are operating under one roof, Le said he's "blessed" for the opportunity to face Vitor Belfort at November's UFC 139 event. In fact, according to the vaunted striker, it's almost like Santa Claus gave him a summer visit.
