As Mark Munoz prepares for his final MMA fight, the vet is disappointed he never earned a shiny gold UFC belt. But the family man believes he has something equally valuable at home.

Munoz (13-6 MMA, 9-6 UFC), a former top-10 middleweight who’s currently stuck in a 1-4 skid, looks to leave the sport on a high note next month when he meets Luke Barnatt (8-2 MMA, 3-2 UFC) at UFC Fight Night 66.

The event takes place May 16 at SM Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, Philippines, and the main card airs on FOX Sports 1.

For 37-year-old Filipino-American Munoz, it’s one final shot at a victory. Those have been hard to come by lately as family and other commitments pull him in different directions.

“Being a mixed martial artist, especially in the UFC and trying to be an elite mixed martial artist, there’s a lot of time involved that’s associated with that,” he told our video partner Rick J. Lee. ” … For the (past) six years, I’ve been doing that, spreading myself too thin.”

However, he said he’s cut down those distractions as he prepares for his MMA finale.

“I need to concentrate on myself sometimes, and this is one of those time,” he said. “I feel that, ‘Hey, I’ve done a lot, and although I wanted a 12-pound gold strap around my waist, I’ve got precious treasure at home.’ And I need to tend to that.”
