The Filipino Wrecking Machine has hung up his gloves for good.

UFC middleweight Mark Munoz called time on his professional MMA career after his phenomenal unanimous decision victory over Luke Barnatt at UFC Manila on Saturday.

Munoz outwrestled the lanky British fighter for three rounds to end his 20 fight career on a high, putting an end to his three fight skid.

After taking home the win, Munoz was handed the mic and he gave an emotional goodbye to the sport inside the Octagon. He closed the touching speech by leaving his gloves in the centre of the Octagon. Check out Munoz’s brilliant retirement speech in the video embedded below.
