However, on September 21, 2010, Belfort withdrew with what was first said to be an injury. It was later reported that Belfort pulled out of the fight to face Anderson Silva, due to Chael Sonnen being suspended for 12 months for failing a drug test. Nate Marquardt will now face Yushin Okami in the main event in what is expected to be a title eliminator bout.
