Following Belfort’s (25-14) stoppage defeat to Kelvin Gastelum in March, which was the Brazilian star’s third straight, he announced his next fight would be hist last.

More recently, Combate reported that Belfort and Marquardt have verbally agreed to fight on June 3rd at UFC 212. MMA Fighting is also reporting that the fight is targeted for UFC 212.

Marquardt (35-17-2) dropped a unanimous decision to Sam Alvey in his last bout, which took place in January.
