Pedro Munhoz gave his fellow Sao Paulo natives a quality show Saturday.
The hometown favorite picked up his fourth consecutive victory with a first-round submission of Rob Font via guillotine choke in the first round of their bantamweight bout at UFC Fight Night 119.

Fittingly enough, Munhoz's performance was a near-replay of his last homecoming, a second-round tapout of Justin Scoggins at UFC Fight Night 100 - also by guillotine.
The 31-year-old fearlessly took the center of the cage and traded leather with a dangerous finisher in Font, who wanted no part of Munhoz's ground game until he was rocked by a left hook, which prompted him to desperately shoot for a takedown right into the Brazilian's clutches. As he's done to many a man, Munhoz snatched a helpless Font's exposed neck and rolled into mount for the fight-ending tapout at the 4:03 mark of Round 1.
Font's first career stoppage loss halts a two-fight win streak and drops his UFC record to 4-2.
