Loses in surprise main event
Muniz lost to Brendan Allen via submission (rear-naked choke) at 4:25 of Round 3 at UFC Fight Night on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
Undefeated for nearly six and a half years and victorious in each of his first five UFC bouts, Muniz saw it all fall apart against a highly underrated opponent. Entering as a healthy -205 favorite, Muniz never seemed to get on track. He and Allen fought to even terms in Round 1 before the gap widened. Muniz had leaned on his wrestling throughout his UFC run, but he failed on all three of his takedown attempts in this fight in addition to allowing Allen to land his only try. Losing is one thing, but few could have ever seen Muniz being out-grappled by Allen. One defeat typically isn't the end of the world, but Andre turned 33 years of age in early-February, meaning he can't afford too many setbacks moving forward.

Shuts out Uriah Hall
Muniz defeated Uriah Hall via unanimous decision (30-27, 30-27, 30-27) at UFC 276 on Saturday in Las Vegas.
ANALYSIS
To give you an idea how dominant Muniz was, Hall didn't land a single significant strikes in either the first or final frames. Muniz is capable on the feet, but everything he does inside the Octagon is an attempt to hopefully get his opponent to the mat. All told, Muniz landed 4-of-10 takedown attempts here, good for 10:12 worth of control time. It would have been nice to see Muniz seek out the finish a bit more than he did, but the end result here was never in question. A product of Dana White's Contender Series, Muniz is a perfect 5-0 in the UFC with three stoppage wins on his resume. The 32-year-old Brazilian is going to get a high-level opponent his next time out.

New matchup with Uriah Hall
Muniz agreed to face Uriah Hall in a middleweight bout at UFC 276 on July 2, Marcel Dorff of Eurosport.nl reports.
ANALYSIS
The previous matchup between the two was scheduled for April 16, but Hall was forced to withdraw and the promotion was unable to find a replacement fighter. The pair now has a new date set while Hall seeks to rebound from a loss to Sean Strickland, though he did win his previous four fights. Muniz has yet to lose since debuting in the promotion in 2019 and is coming off a win over Eryk Anders.
