Marquardt, 42, retired in late 2017 after the second stint of his UFC career came to an end. In 2019, he told MMA Junkie he planned on making a comeback. The return to competition came in August when he picked up a first-round submission win over Michael Cora at Titan FC 71. The loss to Araujo was his second bout since coming back from retirement.

Marquardt has been competing in MMA since 1999. He holds notable wins over Demian Maia, Rousimar Palhares, C.B. Dollaway, Martin Kampmann, Tyron Woodley and others.
