Middleweight veterans Edmen Shahbazyan and Andre Muniz will face off at UFC 320 in Las Vegas on October 4, with Shahbazyan seeking his third consecutive win and Muniz looking to rebound from recent losses.
Middleweight veterans Edmen Shahbazyan and Andre Muniz are gearing up for a showdown at the UFC’s first October pay-per-view in Las Vegas. Multiple insiders spilled the beans to MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Damon Martin. Exciting stuff, right?
UFC 320 hits the T-Mobile Arena on October 4, but the main event remains a mystery. What a tease!
Shahbazyan, boasting a 15-5 record, is on fire with two consecutive wins in 2025. First, he demolished Dylan Budka in just 95 seconds back in February. Then, he edged out Andre Petroski by decision in June. Quite the comeback.
At 27, “The Golden Boy” is finally back on track after a rough patch, losing five of seven between 2020 and 2024. Remember his explosive UFC debut? A 40-second knockout of Antonio Jones on Dana White’s Contender Series. He followed that with four wins, three ending in first-round stoppages. Talk about making a statement!
Muniz, with a 24-7 record, is in dire straits, needing a win after a first-round KO by Ikram Aliskerov in April. He’s 1-3 since 2023, also falling to Paul Craig and Brendan Allen. Yikes!
“Sergipano,” another DWCS alum, had a killer start in the UFC. He snagged three submissions in five straight wins, including armbars over legends like Ronaldo “Jacare” Souza and Eryk Anders. His sole victory since 2023? A split decision over Jun Yong Park in December. Not exactly smooth sailing.
So, who’s your money on?
