After an impressive victory over Mike Pyle at UFC 133, up-and-coming Rory MacDonald has missed nearly one year of competition due to injury. On Saturday, the promising Canadian will attempt to remind fans why he is a future welterweight star by defeating English opponent Che Mills.
With a dominant victory over Chris Cope in his UFC debut, Mills will try to steal MacDonald’s momentum by picking up a sixth consecutive victory at UFC 145. Though a bit older than MacDonald, the 29-year-old Mills is also a very talented young fighter who stopped Marius Zaromskis twice before signing with the UFC.
Let’s take a look at which fighter has a better chance of winning this fight and moving one step closer to becoming a title contender in the welterweight division.
