MacDonald (26-14) just won his comeback fight, submitting Ryan Jensen at UFC 129 in Toronto after a 13-month absence due to a serious ankle injury. Belcher (15-5) has been sidelined by eye surgery since beating Canadian Patrick (The Predator) Cote at UFC 113 in May 2010. In another middleweight bout on the card, Dongi (The Ox) Yang faces Court (The Crusher) McGee.
