Well, isn’t this interesting? It turns out that Lyoto Machida was fighting Munoz on the last fight of his contract. Think about that. New weight class, off a loss, if Machida had fallen to Munoz, it would’ve been a majorly different contract than he’s signing now. Likely what Machida is signing now is his career’s final contract. At 35-years-old, Machida is looking to make some cash and chase gold one more time then get the hell out. This is pure conjecture, but you could see this being an 8 fight deal. Maybe he got PPV points, but who knows?
