Belluardo (12-5-0) went winless during his time in the UFC, dropping bouts to the duo of Joel Alvarez and Mark Madsen. Belluardo also competed once under the Bellator MMA banner, dropping a bout to AJ McKee at Bellator 152. Belluardo hasn’t picked up a victory in over a year, with that last win coming against Denilson Neves De Oliveira at Venator FC 5 in March of 2019.
There is no word yet on when Belluardo will make his promotional debut or whom that bout will come against.
