Pedro Munhoz is the fourth Brazilian fighter to test positive for COVID-19 and the fifth one to have their fight cancelled just within the past few days.
With Anderson dos Santos, Marina Rodriguez, Vinicius Moreira, and Gilbert Burns all out of their respective bouts, it’s now the bantamweight contender who’s been forced out of a Fight Island card due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to MMA Fusion.
Munhoz was scheduled to take on former UFC lightweight champion Frankie Edgar, who’s headed to the bantamweight division for the first time in his career.
