Belcher then faced Kalib Starnes at UFC 77 on October 20, 2007.[12] After controlling the fight with punches and knees from the clinch, the fight was eventually stopped in favor of Belcher due to a large gash over Starnes' right eye.[13]

Belcher was scheduled to fight at UFC 81 against Ricardo Almeida, but Belcher had to pull out two days before the fight due to a severe case of bronchitis and was replaced by Rob Yundt.[14] [15]

Belcher was scheduled to fight Patrick Côté at UFC 83 in Montreal, but Côté withdrew due to a knee injury and was replaced by Jason Day.[16] [17] Belcher eventually was caught by a punch causing Day to swarm punches at Belcher against the fence. The fight was ruled a TKO in favor of Day in the first round.[18]

After a controversial split decision victory over Ed Herman, Belcher fought Pride FC veteran Denis Kang at UFC 93.[19] [20] [21] Kang won the first round after taking down and controlling Belcher on the ground. However, Kang began to fight more and more conservatively, and when he tried to take Belcher down again late in the second round, Belcher caught him in a tight guillotine choke that made Kang almost immediately tap out, winning him a $40,000 Submission of the Night bonus.[22] [23]

Belcher lost a split decision to Yoshihiro Akiyama, at UFC 100 on July 11, 2009.[24] The fight earned Fight of the Night honors, rewarding both fighters with a record setting $100,000.[25]

Belcher was expected to face Demian Maia on September 15, 2010, at in his first main event.[30] However, on August 1, 2010, Belcher withdrew from the fight with Maia after undergoing emergency eye surgery.

He then passed and continued to punish MacDonald and won the fight via verbal submission due to strikes in the first round.[34]

Belcher next faced Rousimar Palhares on May 5, 2012, at UFC on Fox 3.[35] Despite getting the fight to the ground, Palhares was unable to complete his attempted leg locks and heel hook submissions, and Belcher even attempted a few submissions of his own. Belcher would go on to defeat Palhares via TKO in the first round.[36]

Belcher was expected to face Vitor Belfort on October 13, 2012, at UFC 153.[37] However, Belfort was pulled from the bout to face Jon Jones on September 22, 2012, at UFC 152.[38] Belcher called the collapse of the UFC 151 a "blessing in disguise" as he would have been unable to compete due to a fractured spine, keeping him out of action until November. He wanted to face Chris Weidman in his return fight.[39]

A rematch with Yushin Okami took place on December 29, 2012, at UFC 155.[40] Belcher lost the bout by unanimous decision.[41]

Belcher faced Michael Bisping on April 27, 2013, at UFC 159.[42] Bisping controlled the majority of the fight due to his conditioning and cardio pushing a constant pace. The bout was stopped at 4:29 of round 3 as Bisping inadvertently poked Belcher in the eye, rendering Belcher unable to continue. Bisping won the bout via technical unanimous decision.[43] Belcher got eight stitches in his eyelid after the fight.[44]

On November 11, 2015, Belcher announced his retirement from mixed martial arts.[45] A few years afterwards, Belcher negotiated a release from his prevailing UFC contract.[46]
