Che Mills has been thrust into the spotlight following the announcement of the running order for UFC 145 on April 21.

Mills, who will meet Rory MacDonald, is to share co-main event billing with Jon Jones v Rashad Evans for the Atlanta event.

Britain's Mills is a veteran of one UFC fight, in which he secured a stoppage victory over Chris Cope with a mere 40 seconds on the clock.

The Gloucester welterweight made his way into the UFC two years after being knocked off TUF following a loss to James Wilks.

Brendan Schaub v Ben Rothwell will come immediately before the Mills v MacDonald bout, with Mark Hominick v Eddie Yagin appearing fourth from last.
