Brad Pickett vs Michael McDonald added to UFC on FOX Sports 1

Coming off a title shot with Renan Barao in London, Michael McDonald has got his comeback fight. It's no easy one either as he takes on top contender Brad Pickett. McDonald vs Pickett will go down on the now stacked UFC on Fox Sports 1 card on August 17th in Boston. As the UFC are delivering on the promise they made of putting on a great show to open the new TV channel in the states.
This should be a fun slugfest and Pickett who is a renowned fun fighter will relish this test. Dana White has not been shy in hiding the exciting Brit is one of his favourite fighters and it's a little wonder why. His fights never fail to live up to the excitement. His all action style wherever the fight goes means he is a big fan favourite.
McDonald himself is getting a similar reputation of late. He's still only a young man learning his game but he gave Barao everything he had in London, ultimately it wasn't good enough on the night. He has hands of stone though and will be looking to connect with Pickett's chin throughout the fight. With Faber vs Alcantara also added to the card it isn't hard to imagine that the winners will face off for a number 1 contender slot.
