Fil-Am fighter Muñoz KOs foe in UFC match

Another Filipino-American mixed martial arts fighter is slowly making a name inside the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) octagon. Mark "The Filipino Wrecking Machine" Muñoz scored a sensational first-round knockout win over Clarence Byron "Doberman" Dollaway 54 seconds into their scheduled three-round middleweight bout in Louisville, Kentucky. The 33-year-old Muñoz, a two-time 189-pound California State Wrestling champion for Vallejo High School, improved his MMA career record to 10 wins and two losses while giving Dollaway his third setback in 14 fights. Muñoz did not waste any time in launching a barrage of punches and blows. Consecutive overhand right punches staggered Dolloway, causing the former All-American wrestler to fall on his back. Muñoz took advantage of the situation and landed two hammerfists to Dolloway's face, prompting referee Mario Yamasaki to move in and stop the fight. Moving up to middleweight has also improved Muñoz's fight record to five wins against one loss. – Jon Perez, KY, GMA News
