Recently released, and rehired bantamweight standout Miguel Torres (40-4) finally has an opponent for his return to action. Torres will go toe to toe with 21 year old prospect Michael "Mayday" McDonald (14-1) at UFC 145 in Atlanta.

Torres, recently released from the promotion for making a rape-related joke on Twitter, was rehired shortly after. The former WEC bantamweight champion most recently defeated Nick Pace at UFC 139 in November. McDonald competed on the same card, defeating Alex Soto by knockout.

UFC 145 takes place on Saturday, April 21, 2012.
