Ultimate Fighting Championship despite having two matches left on his contract.
Dumont (13-4) announced he is no longer with the UFC, saying he already knew the promotion would not renew his contract when it expired. He revealed that he had already discussed leaving the UFC with his fiance and fellow fighter, Marcus Tullius
(14-3), with whom he wants to start a family after leaving the UFC.

Dumont also revealed that he has received an offer from another mixed martial arts promotion to compete for the title, as well as another offer to compete in boxing. The 36-year-old admits that the boxing offer is more lucrative and she is seriously considering accepting it.
“I’m here to announce my official departure from the UFC,” Dumont said on Instagram. “I want to say that I’m very grateful for all those years – it was eight years with them, it was wonderful for me, it’s where I built my career, it’s where I built my financial life, I changed my life and the lives of people around me, I met Marco Tulio, so for me it was something incredible that made me very happy for many years. But I think now I need to breathe in a contract with two more places. My last fight, if there were three more fights left, I already had information that when these fights are over, I had already agreed with Marco that I will retire at the end of next year because we want to start our family… the offers are very good, but I admit that it would be a great opportunity and I think you will see me in boxing next year, and I think I will get a lot of pleasure from this offer, but I can’t do it.
Dumont made his UFC debut in 2020 and went 9-4. “The Immortal” exits the UFC on a two-fight skid. Most recently, he lost by unanimous decision Ailin Perez
last September, which he believes he won.
