Filed under: Featured , News , UFC After a big win at UFC 206, Kelvin Gastelum is getting his wish. Following a series of weight-cutting gaffes at welterweight, Gastelum (13-2 MMA, 8-2 UFC) was forced to middleweight, where he scored a third-round TKO victory over Tim Kennedy (18-6 MMA, 3-2 UFC) in a pay-per-view main-card bout at this past Saturday’s UFC 206 event in Toronto. After the performance, Gastelum said he welcomed a fight with Belfort (25-13 MMA, 14-9 UFC) at 185 pounds. Now, he’s got it – in a main-event slot. The fight is slated for UFC Fight Night 107, which takes place March 11 in Brazil.
