Pedro Munhoz

Pedro Munhoz has been one of the bantamweight division's most reliable yardsticks for years. Granite-chinned and tough, he's the kind of fighter prospects have to get past to prove they belong, with heavy leg kicks and a dangerous guillotine in his back pocket.

His career highlight came against an all-time great: a win over Jose Aldo. He also shares a footnote in Sean O'Malley's rise, as their high-profile bout ended in a no-contest after an accidental eye poke just as things were getting interesting.

Munhoz isn't flashy, but he's respected. Few fighters in the division have been more willing to share the cage with anyone, or harder to put away.
