Renan Barao Vs Michael McDonald Interim Title Fight Headlines ‘UFC On Fuel TV 7’ In The UK

A bantamweight interim title fight between Renan Barao and Michael McDonald will headline February 16th’s ‘UFC On Fuel TV 7’ event in London, England.

The title clash was quickly arranged after it emerged earlier this week that current 135lb title holder Dominick Cruz would be out for a further 6-9 months due to a second ACL operation.

This will be the first time ever that Fuel TV will play host a UFC title fight, and it’ll also be a first for the UK too.

The event is expected to air live in the evening in the UK, with ‘Fuel TV’ also broadcasting it live in an afternoon timeslot in North America with replays following later that night.
