UFC 130 – Michael McDonald says he has payback in mind when he take on Chris Cariaso in Las Vegas

UFC bantamweight prospect, Michael McDonald has been speaking about his upcoming fight with Chris Cariaso at UFC 130 in Las Vegas, Nevada, explaining this is a fight he’s been looking forward to for a number of years after he defeated one of his team mates.
Speaking via UFC.com, McDonald said:

“I’ve been looking at Chris Cariaso for a long time, ever since he beat my teammate [Rolando Velesco] and I think I can beat the guy. He is definitely a good fighter. Personally, the fight he beat my teammate in was I think the best performance of his career. He’s a good guy. I’ve talked to him quite a bit. He’s from the Bay Area and I’m from the Central Valley. He’s got good stand-up and he’s well-rounded.”

“I’d like to go in there, win, be safe and get out without any injuries. I like to get in there and get out very quick. But I’m not one to question what God’s plan for this is. This career is God’s project for me and whatever he does with it I’m just a vessel in which he does it by.”

McDonald was set to reappear on the UFC 133 card on August 6^th against Nick Pace but it seems he’s ready to go and has been bumped up to this card. He is fresh off a “Fight of the Night” winning performance against Edwin Figueroa in Seattle, pulling out a clear winner on the judges scorecards.
