Struggles continue in Kansas City
MiddleweightUFC
April 26, 2025
Muniz lost to Ikram Aliskerov via TKO (punches) at 4:54 of Round 1 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Kansas City.
ANALYSIS
Entering as a +350 underdog, Muniz played his role to perfection. Outside of one token takedown attempt, he was content with consistently getting backed up by Aliskerov on the feet. The finish came when Muniz crumbled during an exchange along the fence in what was a delayed reaction. Referee Jason Herzog gave the Brazilian countless time to recover, but he was unable to do so and was finished with just six seconds left in the opening frame. Once viewed as a rising contender at 185 pounds, Muniz has lost three of his last four and has just a single win dating back to July 2022.

Muniz will fight Ikram Aliskerov at UFC Saudi Arabia on Feb. 1, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
The two fighters were originally set to face each other at UFC Vegas 93 back in June, but Muniz suffered a foot fracture while training for the bout and has since been held out of action. Now fully recovered, he'll finally get his shot at Aliskerov, though the 34-year-old Brazilian could be at risk of showing some rust in what will be his first fight in nearly 14 months.

Muniz suffered a foot fracture in training and will no longer take on Ikram Aliskerov at UFC Vegas 93, per Guilherme Cruz of MMAFighting.com.
ANALYSIS
Muniz and Aliskerov were expected to co-headline the event along with Alex Perez and Tatsuro Taira, but the injury is expected to require surgery and take Muniz out of action for an extended period. It is thus far unclear whether Aliskerov will be given another opponent for the event.
Aliskerov up next
MiddleweightUFC
April 8, 2024
Muniz is scheduled to compete against Ikram Aliskerov in a middleweight fight at UFC Vegas 93 on June 15, per Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl.
ANALYSIS
Muniz will look to bounce back from a relatively unimpressive 2023, a year he went 1-2. He submitted to Brendan Allen, suffered a TKO from Paul Craig and barely defeated Jun Yong Park by split decision to round that year off. For his first opponent in 2024, Muniz's next opponent is Aliskerov, 2-0 in UFC completion and 15-1 overall, with his lone loss being to Khamzat Chimaev.
