Former UFC champ Renan Barao ‘did not sign a contract’ with Serbian MMA promotion

It seems former UFC bantamweight champion Renan Barao is not headed to Serbia after all.

Shortly after promotion Serbian Battle Championship announced the Brazilian’s signing on their official Instagram page, Barao quickly made a post on his Instagram stories, denying the news.

“Hey, guys. I’m here again to inform everyone that I did not sing a contract with any promotions.” Barao wrote.

When reached by Brazilian news outlet Combate, explained that he not only did not sign a contract with Serbian Battle Championship, but he only took the picture the promotion posted online because he attended March 14’s SBC 27 event as a guest.
