With UFC 237 in the books, it’s now onto UFC 238 in Chicago, Illinois and that means we’ll see a big night for the bantamweights. That includes the top-ranked contender, Brazil’s Pedro Munhoz.<\/p>\n
Fresh off the biggest win of his career over Cody Garbrandt via first-round knockout at UFC 235 in March, Munhoz is now one fight away from a title shot that he should arguably be getting for his next outing.<\/p>\n
Instead, he’ll be taking on a fellow top contender in the Serra-Longo Gym staple, Aljamain ‘Funkmaster’ Sterling<\/a>. A bout that will surely see the winner take on the new champion that will be decided in the UFC 238 main event for the vacant bantamweight title between Marlon Moraes and flyweight champion, Henry Cejudo.<\/p>\n Never shy to voice his opinion, Sterling took to Twitter last month to call out Munhoz for USADA test failure following his bout with Jerrod Sanders in 2014 (originally a 39-second guillotine win for Munhoz).<\/p>\n I just hope you guys test Pedro properly for this fight. I completely forgot his suspension back in 2015 for his testosterone metabolites. — Aljamain Sterling (@funkmasterMMA) April 14, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
Dana White said he didnt know you guys weren\u2019t testing for EPO. Well I want that done too. No shortcuts to victory!@usantidoping<\/a> @USADA_UFC<\/p>\n
