The sentencing for former UFC heavyweight champion Cain Velasquez has been delayed until 2025.

At a sentencing hearing Friday at the Santa Clara County Hall of Justice in San Jose, Calif., a court official announced the matter is continued until early next year. A new date was not announced.

No further details were revealed, though a public information officer told MMA Junkie that Friday’s hearing was solely the submission of a report written by Velasquez’s probation officer.

Velasquez, 42, has been out on bail since November 2022 as he faces charges of attempted murder (one count), shooting at a motor vehicle or aircraft (one count), assault with a firearm (three counts), assault with a deadly weapon (three counts), willfully discharging a firearm from a vehicle (one count) and carrying a loaded firearm with intent to commit a felony (one count).

Velasquez initially pleaded not guilty to the charges but changed his plea to no contest in August.

Velasquez was arrested nearly two-and-a-half years ago after he allegedly pursued and shot at a man, Harry Goularte, accused of molesting Velasquez’s then 4-year-old son at a daycare. Velasquez allegedly chased a car carrying Goularte and family members during a high-speed chase with a bullet striking Goularte’s stepfather, causing injury.

Goularte faces a felony charge of lewd acts with a minor and has a trial setting and motion hearing scheduled for Nov. 13. There is also a coinciding civil lawsuit by the Velasquez family against Goularte, his family, and their businesses.
