Dana White: Renan Barao 'should probably move up' to featherweight
Now having lost his belt to T.J. Dillashaw and the rematch, the only chance former bantamweight champion Renan Barao has of getting a title shot again is another weight class.
And UFC president Dana White thinks it's time for the 28-year-old Brazilian to get a change of scenery.
White said in the UFC on FOX 16 post-fight conference that he thinks Barao should explore the idea of moving up to featherweight, particularly since he has had so much trouble cutting weight over the years.
