In two weeks, Renan Barao looks for his second successful defense of the UFC interim bantamweight title. Watch how he first claimed the belt.
At UFC 149 in July 2012, the UFC booked Barao vs. Faber, a former WEC champion and perennial contender, for the interim title while champ Dominick Cruz recovered from a knee injury. Watch the full fight above.
And catch Barao (30-1 MMA, 5-0 UFC) in action on Sept. 21, when he and ex-WEC titleholder Eddie Wineland (20-8-1 MMA, 2-2 UFC) meet in the pay-per-view headliner of UFC 165, which takes place at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre.
