Michael McDonald Signs A New Four-Fight Deal With UFC | UFC News

By Jamie McAllister
Bantamweight contender Michael McDonald has landed a new four fight deal with the UFC.

Sources close to the fighter’s camp confirmed the news to MMAWeekly.com.

McDonald has gone (4-0) in the UFC and in his last bout at UFC 145 stopped former WEC Bantamweight Champion Miguel Torres in the first round.

With the renewed deal McDonald can start looking forward to his next fight later in the year. He was also touted for the Interim Bantamweight Title fight with Urijah Faber at UFC 148 however an injury took him out of contention.

At the age of 21 the sky is the limit for McDonald who has already build up an impressive overall record of (15-1).

      I’m sure bareo will KO Fabertism but Mcdonald would have also so either way Faber is going to get beat up just like his fight with Aldo. That fight was like a lion toying with a crippled gazzel. Bareo is going to cripple faber and then dismantle him. I will never forget look on Fabers face when Dana announced live on TUF that Faber would be fighting Bareo instead of Menjavar who faber was convinced he would be fighting. Props to UFC/Dana because i was sure tehy would have given Faber the easiest of the three for sure.

      • Yuke says:

        Faber suggested Barao among others in a video that was actually featured in this site. His look was that of anyone who didn’t know who they would be facing.

        • danielrchargers says:

          iv seen the TUF episode and its %100 looked like Faber was laughing/smiling.. didnt see any sign of fear.

  2. Youlame says:

    Yay
