The last few years have been rough for 31-year-old. In his last five fights, Renan Barao (34-6-1 NC) has suffered four losses, to the likes of TJ Dillashaw, Jeremy Stephens, Aljamain Sterling, and most recently Brian Kelleher. During that time, Barao defeated Phillipe Nover via unanimous decision in September 2016.
