Scheduled to compete for the middleweight championship at UFC 173 on May 24, Belfort was pulled out of the fight after TRT was banned by Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC). He claims he has been cleared to compete, and wants to fight Chris Weidman for the title at UFC 175 in July.
"I did all the tests that Nevada requires," Belfort told MMAFighting.com. "I did it on my own, and I passed them all. There is nothing in my system anymore. God has blessed me. I’m ready now, and I’m waiting.
"Since they canceled (Weidman vs. Machida) in May, there is nothing else to do. Give me what is mine."
Belfort is not officially cleared by the NSAC yet, but he plans to meet with the commission "soon" to ask for a license.
"I’m doing it really soon," he said. "The important is that I’m doing everything by the rules."
