Kelvin Gastelum (born October 24, 1991) is an American professional mixed martial artist. He currently competes in the welterweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). Gastelum earned a contract with the UFC after winning The Ultimate Fighter 17 in 2013. Gastelum has also competed in the middleweight division.

Early life and education

[edit]

Gastelum is of Mexican descent. His family is from Obregon, Sonora, where he lived temporarily during his childhood. Gastelum won a 5A Division II AIA state wrestling title out of Cibola High School[5] and continued to wrestle at North Idaho College, where he was ranked as high as fifth in the country (NJCAA) as a freshman before deciding to compete in mixed martial arts professionally.[4] He worked as a bail bondsman prior to training MMA full-time.[6][7]

Mixed martial arts career

[edit]

Early career

[edit]

After turning professional, Gastelum amassed an undefeated record of five wins (all finishes) and no losses before competing in The Ultimate Fighter.[8]

The Ultimate Fighter

[edit]

In January 2013, it was announced that Gastelum was selected for The Ultimate Fighter: Team Jones vs. Team Sonnen.[9] To get into the TUF house, Gastelum defeated Kito Andrews by decision. During the choosing of teams, he was picked last by coach Chael Sonnen for Team Sonnen.

Gastelum's next fight in the house was against Bubba McDaniel.[10] He won in the second round via rear naked choke submission.[11]

In the quarterfinals, Gastelum would take on Collin Hart. He won the fight by TKO in the first round.[12]

In the semifinals, Gastelum fought Josh Samman. He won via first round rear naked choke, and advanced to the tournament finals.[13]

Ultimate Fighting Championship

[edit]

Gastelum faced teammate Uriah Hall in the finals at the Ultimate Fighter 17 Finale.[14] Gastelum won the fight via split decision, becoming the youngest winner in the show's history at 21 years old and earned a UFC contract. After the victory, Gastelum announced he would be moving down a weight class to compete in the UFC's welterweight division.[15]

Move to Welterweight

[edit]

Gastelum was expected to face Paulo Thiago on August 28, 2013, at UFC Fight Night 27.[16] However, Thiago pulled out of the bout citing a knee injury and was replaced by Brian Melancon.[17] Gastelum finished Melancon via rear naked choke in the first round.[18]

Gastelum was expected to face Court McGee on December 14, 2013, at UFC on Fox 9, but was forced to withdraw due to a torn PCL.[19]

Gastelum faced Rick Story on March 15, 2014, at UFC 171.[20] He won the back-and-forth fight via split decision.[21]

Gastelum faced Nico Musoke on June 28, 2014, at UFC Fight Night 44.[22] Gastelum missed weight by one and three-quarter pounds and forfeited 20% of his fight purse to Musoke.[23] He won the fight via unanimous decision.[24]

Gastelum next fought Jake Ellenberger on November 15, 2014, at UFC 180 as the co-main event.[25] He won the fight in the first round via rear-naked choke.[26] The win also earned Gastelum his first Performance of the Night bonus award.[27]

Gastelum next faced Tyron Woodley on January 31, 2015, at UFC 183. He missed weight by 10 lbs and was fined 30% of his fight purse which would be given to Woodley.[28] He lost the fight via split decision. In the post-fight interview with Joe Rogan, Woodley said that he would not accept 30% of Gastelum's purse, as him missing weight and losing was enough punishment.[29]

Due to Gastelum not being able to make weight on two occasions while fighting in the welterweight division in the UFC, UFC president Dana White ordered Gastelum to move up to middleweight.[30] In his return to middleweight, Gastelum faced Nate Marquardt at UFC 188 on June 13, 2015.[31] He won the fight via TKO after Marquardt's corner stopped the fight between the second and third round.[32]

Gastelum was expected to face Matt Brown in a welterweight bout on November 21, 2015, at The Ultimate Fighter Latin America 2 Finale.[33] However, Brown withdrew from the fight due to an ankle injury suffered in training.[34] He was replaced by Neil Magny.[35] Gastelum lost the fight by split decision.[36] Both participants earned Fight of the Night honors.[37]

Gastelum was scheduled to face Kyle Noke on January 2, 2016 at UFC 195,[38] however, Gastelum pulled out due to a wrist injury and was replaced by Alex Morono.[39]

Gastelum next faced Johny Hendricks on July 9, 2016 at UFC 200.[40] He won the fight via unanimous decision.[41]

Gastelum was expected to face Donald Cerrone at UFC 205 but, on the day of the weigh-ins, Gastelum did not make an attempt to formally make the 171 lb limit and the bout was scrapped.[42][43] This made it the third time Gastelum failed to make the welterweight limit, prompting Dana White to say that he will "never let him fight at 170 again".[44]

Return to Middleweight

[edit]

Gastelum returned to middleweight and faced Tim Kennedy on December 10, 2016 at UFC 206.[45] He won the fight via TKO in the third round.[46]

Gastelum next fought Vitor Belfort on March 11, 2017, in the main event at UFC Fight Night 106.[47] He won the fight via TKO in the first round.[48] The win also earned Gastelum a Performance of the Night bonus award.[49]

Gastelum was expected to face Anderson Silva at UFC 212.[50] However, he was pulled from the event after USADA learned he tested positive for high levels of marijuana metabolite Carboxy-Tetrahydrocannabinol (Carboxy-THC) above the 180 mL allowance by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) from his previous drug test for his bout against Belfort.[51] On May 7, Gastelum's win over Belfort was officially overturned to a "No Contest" and he was suspended 90 days (retroactive to the March 11 test date).[52] The Performance of the Night which Gastelum had been awarded against Vitor Belfort was also rescinded.

The bout with Anderson Silva was rescheduled and was expected to take place at a UFC Fight Night on November 25, 2017.[55] However, Silva was pulled from the bout due to failing a USADA drug test and was replaced by Michael Bisping.[56] Gastelum defeated Bisping by knockout in the first round.[57] He also earned his second Performance of the Night bonus award.[58]

Gastelum faced Ronaldo Souza on May 12, 2018, at UFC 224.[59] He won the back and forth fight via split decision.[60] Both combatants received the Fight of the Night bonus.[61]

In July 2018, the UFC announced that Gastelum and Robert Whittaker were selected as coaches for Ultimate Fighter 28.[62] On November 2, 2018, it was announced that Gastelum was scheduled to face Whittaker for the UFC Middleweight Championship on February 9, 2019, at UFC 234.[63] However, Whittaker pulled out of the fight a few hours before the event and was forced to undergo emergency dual surgery later in the day due to an abdominal hernia of the intestine and a twisted and collapsed bowel.[64]

Gastelum faced Israel Adesanya on April 13, 2019 at UFC 236 for the interim UFC Middleweight Championship.[65] He lost the fight via unanimous decision in a back and forth fight.[66] This fight earned him the Fight of the Night award,[67] and was later voted the 2019 Fight of the Year by multiple MMA media outlets.[68][69]

Gastelum faced Darren Till at UFC 244 in New York City, New York on November 2, 2019.[70] Subsequent to the event's weigh-ins, the NYSAC issued a rare statement that they would be pursuing disciplinary action against Gastelum. Per the statement, the Athletic Commission stated upon review of Gastelum's weigh-in video that they "determined that Mr. Gastelum made contact with another person while on the scale, a violation of the weigh in policy. As the result, Gastelum and his coach, Rafael Cordeiro, were fined $1,000 and $200 respectively by New York State Athletic Commission.[71] The official weight determination would not be disturbed, and Mr. Gastelum would not be disqualified from competing in UFC 244."[72] He lost the fight via split decision.[73] Gastelum was suspended by USADA for 9 months for testing positive for marijuana in relation to his bout with Darren Till at UFC 244 in November 2019 but the suspension was reduced to five months after Gastelum's successful completion of a drug treatment program.[74]
