Why You Should Cheer for Mark Munoz
All the hype surrounding Sunday night’s WEC fight is about Urijah Faber and Jens Pulver - deservedly so. However, you should tune in to see more than “the best fight EVER.” This card features two title defenses, MMA veteran Rob McCullough, and one of my favorite people on the planet, Mark Munoz.
Munoz, a national champion for the Oklahoma State Cowboys, makes his WEC debut on Sunday against Chuck Grigsby. Here are a few reasons why you should cheer for him when he enters the cage this Sunday:
1. He helped UC-Davis to their first national champion ever.
2. His face lights up and he pulls out pictures when you ask him about his family.
3. He is planning on finishing his Sports Psychology master’s thesis between fights . The subject? The rise of MMA.4. Urijah Faber talked him into trying MMA.
5. He is quite talented at turning lemons into lemonade.
6. He showed John Smith that he could be successful at 197 when Smith said he should drop down. (For the non-wrestling peeps here, John Smith is not the easiest guy to stand up to…)
7. Maybe this one is just for the ladies, but, he’s adorable!
Catch Mark this Sunday on the WEC on Versus .
