This article has no independent sources and doesn't show that the subject meets any notability criteria. Training with a national team isn't the same as being on a national team. My search found he has a 3-1 record as an MMA fighter fighting non-notable fighters at non-notable events for non-notable promotions. Jakejr (talk) 05:25, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak Delete There are unsupported claims that Muniz is a two-time World Brazilian Jiu-jitsu Champion and a two-time gold medalist in Sambo. I am unable to find independent sources to verify these claims (including the International Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Federation website). The only places I can find mentions of these wins are in advertisements of his visits to local gyms and dojos and for instructional videos. If an independent, reliable source can be found to back up these claims, I think he would then be notable. --TreyGeek (talk) 22:12, 5 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I found no independent verifications of anything that makes this fighter notable. Astudent0 (talk) 19:18, 6 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I found nothing in reliable sources to show he's notable. Mdtemp (talk) 15:55, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I've been rooting around unsuccessfully to find some mention of this guy but his wins in Sambo, the Mundials, or anything else don't seem to be documented online.--Stvfetterly (talk) 20:07, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
