When it came time to compete in MMA, Mark Munoz hit the ground running. And when it came time to stop, he crossed the finish line with few regrets.
By now, the story of Munoz’s retirement is well known, as are his reasons for doing so. He went out with a win, defeating Luke Barnatt by unanimous decision at a UFC Fight Night show on May 16, 2015, in his ancestral home of the Philippines. Though he wasn’t in the main or even co-main event spot that night, he was given the chance to say a proper farewell on national television.
