Renan Barao is set to defend his interim bantamweight title for the first time, and he will try to do so against Michael McDonald in the UFC on Fuel TV 7 main event.

The Brazilian champion earned his belt with a win over Urijah Faber, but it initially looked like he would sit out and wait for fellow champion Dominick Cruz to return from injury. However, when Cruz suffered a setback in his recovery from his knee problem, Barao was matched up with McDonald.

McDonald hasn’t competed in more than nine months due to hand surgery. When he last appeared, McDonald picked up the biggest win of his career, a knockout of former WEC champion Miguel Torres.

In addition to the bantamweight title fight, an important featherweight bout between Cub Swanson and Dustin Poirier will also be featured on the main card. 

To promote UFC on Fuel TV 7, held at the Wembley Arena in London, England, a pre-fight press conference will be held on Wednesday at 8 a.m. ET. Event headliners Barao, McDonald, Swanson and Poirier will likely join UFC president Dana White for the presser.

Video of the press conference will be streamed live on the above video player. After the presser, stay tuned to Bleacher Report MMA for all the latest on UFC on Fuel TV 7 and the rest of your MMA needs.

UFC on Fuel TV 7 goes down on Saturday from historic Wembley Arena in a little place known as London-towne. If one traipses toward the end of this card, one will find gold. But it’s not the mythical pot o’ gold, which the Irish might have you tilt toward as the man of La Mancha toward the windmills. Instead, it is a belt of gold. An interim belt of gold. And interim bantamweight champion Renan Barao places those riches on the line against Michael McDonald, the clear best non-Barao, non-Dominick-Cruz bantamweight MMA fighter on planet Earth.

But there’s more. Plenty other fighters are on the card. Plenty of British fighters are included. Would you like to know what they all—British and otherwise—have to do in order to win? Keep calm and carry on.
