Pedro Munhoz kicked off the main card of UFC 235, defeating former UFC Bantamweight Champion Cody Garbrandt by knockout.
Petr Yan, who was last seen in action at UFC Fight Night Prague, would take a shot at Munhoz after UFC 235 via Twitter:
This guy who lost to Dodson won by lucky punch today and now thinks he will fight for the title ------

Munhoz would get wind of what Yan had said, would give the bantamweight prospect an opportunity to suck some balls.
“He just got in UFC now, he has a bunch of fights to go,” Munhoz said to Aaron Bronsteter of TSN. “He just beat recently John Dodson. I just knocked out the former champion now, and I will fight any fighter in that division. Tell him to suck my balls right now, because he just literally got in the UFC right now. He’s tough, everyone is tough in the division, but now I have to fight for the title.”
Yan wasn’t very happy with what Munhoz’s response was and would issue the following statement via Twitter:
you are an filthy animal after response like that! You and I will definitely meet as soon as you take off your skirt! @PedroMunhozmma https://t.co/q5UmFtQRvJ
