BIRMINGHAM, England – UFC middleweight contender Mark Munoz is good and ready to drop that “up-and-comer” tag.
After a 10-minute dismantling of popular slugger Chris Leben in the main
event of Saturday’s UFC 138 card in Birmingham, England, Munoz said
he’s ready to challenge UFC middleweight champ Anderson Silva for the belt.
And while Silva has in the past been targeted by opponent’s who seem to
bear ill will toward him, Munoz doesn’t share in that malice. In face
Munoz credits a “Bruce Lee moment” with Silva for much of his current
success.
