Last week, UFC bantamweight champion T.J Dillashaw relinquished his title after an adverse finding was found in one of his drug tests. Now, top contender Pedro Munhoz has his eyes on the vacant title.
Munhoz (18-3, 1NC) leapfrogged into the upper echelon at 135-pounds with a knockout win over former champion Cody Garbrandt at the beginning of March. “The Young Punisher” picked up consecutive wins against Bryan Caraway and Brett Johns before his recent KO win.
Talking recently to MMAjunkie, Munhoz discussed Dillashaw’s recent drug test failure, and what it means for the future of the bantamweight division.
