Muñoz seriously injured his right leg while fighting a bull in the late summer of 1999. As of September 2012 he was training ex-CJFL star Tyler J. MacDonald in Cranbrook, British Columbia, Canada. Muñoz also stood as witness to the ill-fated bullfighter José Cubero Sánchez's confirmation on 27 May 1982, with José María Manzanares as "godfather" (Cubero was killed in the bullring only three years later).[2]
