URIAH HALL VS ANDRE MUNIZ LOWDOWN

Uriah Hall (17-10) is hoping to regain some momentum after finally getting a streak going. He has never lived up to his potential and after getting steamrolled and knocked out by Paulo Costa (2018) he slumped to 6-7 in the UFC. However, he bounced back with a four-fight win streak and looked great in the process knocking out Bevon Lewis (2018), outpointing Antonio Carlos Junior (2019) and knocking out Anderson Silva (2021) which was followed by that gut wrenching leg break to Chris Weidman (2021). Unfortunately, Sean Strickland halted the run with a dominant unanimous decision.

Andre Muniz (22-4) is another uber talented fighter sneaking in under the radar. The Brazilian jiu-jitsu wizard is on an eight-fight win streak and has made short work of his UFC opponents. He went three rounds with Antonio Arroyo (2019) but it was a comfortable win and then went on to submit Bartosz Fabinski (2020). He then incredibly broke Jacare Souza’s (2021) arm who along with Demian Maia, is accepted as one of the best jiu-jitsu practitioners who had ever graced MMA. Muniz then followed that up with another first-round submission, this time over Eryk Anders (2021).

URIAH HALL VS ANDRE MUNIZ PREDICTION

Hall has always relied on his striking, but his grappling is underrated, particularly his defence as we saw in the Carlos Junior fight. However, Muniz is a different beast on the mat. If he gets a hold of Hall, it should only be a matter of time before he snatches a limb or cinches in a choke.

On the flip side, Hall is arguably the most dangerous striker Muniz has faced. All four of the Brazilian’s losses have also come via knockout and considering Hall is a significant underdog, a Hall knockout is a no brainer.

However, Muniz just needs one of his trips to latch on a body lock and it is game over.
