Vitor Belfort Wants Rematch With Kelvin Gastelum

Former UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Vitor Belfort suffered a loss to Kelvin Gastelum in the main event of UFC Fight Night 106.

However, the win for Gastelum would eventually be overturned to a no contest after the victorious Gastelum failed a drug test.

Belfort doesn’t want their battle to end with a no contest and he has challenged Gastelum to a rematch.

The Brazilian made the challenge via Instagram:

 

I was supposed to fight @derekbrunson last year and again on September 9th. Twice UFC offered me this fight and weeks later says that he is not available. I don't know what that means… After that they offered me a beginner as a opponent to fight in Canada… I don't know what is happening, but if @derekbrunson can't fight. @kgastelum let's erase the no contest from our cards. I don't care about your fight result tonight. I'm ready to fight!!! Let's do it again! Eu deveria ter lutado com @derekbrunson ano passado e depois estava marcado para lutar com ele em 9 de Setembro no Canadá. Semanas depois o UFC me diz que ele não está "disponível" outra vez. Não sei muito bem o que isso quer dizer… Depois disso me ofereceram um iniciante para lutar no Canadá… Não sei o que está acontecendo com o @derekbrunson , mas se ele não pode lutar de novo. @kgastelum , vamos apagar o no contest do nosso cartel. Não me importa o resultado da sua luta hj. Eu estou pronto!! Vamos fazer essa luta outra vez!!!
