FIL-AM MARK MONUZ TO FIGHT TIM BOETSCH IN UFC 162
By Dionis Jacobe PhilBoxing.com Fri, 08 Mar 2013

The famous Fil-Am MMA fighter, Mark Munoz, who is currently visiting the Philippines and will showcase his superb MMA moves at the MOA Arena on March 10, will fight fellow middleweight Tim Boetsch on July 6, 2013 at ?UFC 162: Silva vs. Weidman? in Las Vegas at a yet to be determined venue.
Mu?oz was born in a US Naval Base in Yokosuka, Japan to Filipino parents from the Philippines. At the age of 2, Mu?oz and his family relocated and settled in the former US Navy town of Vallejo, California.
His opponent, Tim Boetsch, returns to action for the first time since suffering a TKO loss at the hands of fast-rising contender Constantinos Philippou. The disappointing result snapped a four-fight win streak for Boetsch, who now meets the Mark Munoz. The "Filipino Wrecking Machine" was once considered one of the 185-pound division's top contenders in the UFC middleweight, but because of recent injuries he was forced to be in the sidelines that derailed his momentum.
