This Saturday, Feb. 16, England will welcome the Octagon to Wembley Arena for the UFC’s seventh installment of its Fuel TV series. 

UFC on Fuel TV 7 will feature an interim bantamweight title fight between the division’s incumbent placeholder, Renan Barao, and No. 1 contender Michael McDonald. 

In the night’s co-main event, featherweight contenders Dustin Poirier and Cub Swanson will jockey for position in the promotion’s increasingly crowded 145-pound weight class. 

If you want to catch these, or any of the card’s other 10 contests, don’t forget that the action will kick off a bit earlier than usual. Since it’s happening in the U.K., the event will be a matinee in the Americas.
