For Lesnar to win, it would have to be a similar fight when he beat Carwin. Weather the storm and then submit Hunt. Lesnar has no punching power or any real stand up striking. So he has to win it on the ground.

Hunt doesn't overexert like Carwin did in that fight. He is always pretty measured but who knows how it will play out.

I would have loved to see a fully healthy 30 year old Brock and how he would have done with more time in the UFC. No matter what anyone says about him he is a great athlete. Hope he doesn't get pulled before the fight with the drug testing.

Lesnar has added some extra flair to this already awesome card.

I doubt Lesnar can submit Hunt. Hunt has fought some of the best submission fighters of all time - Fedor, Mir, Big Nog, and all those Pride fighters.

Style makes fights. For Lesnar to min it'll be ground n pound. Hunt has a few more options. Obviously Lesnar will shoot or bull rush Hunt at some stage, just a matter of if Hunt catches him or not before hand.

How good Hunt's wrestling is may dictate who wins.

I don't think Hunt's wrestling is what it used to be. He was a helpless child against Miocic, who held him there and beat him up for 5 rounds.

I thought the Mir/Hunt fight might retire either of them. This fight could retire Hunt if it goes 'south' for him.

is this UFC?

bad arse fight or what...

Hunt by walk off KO FTW

"Mark Hunt slams Brock Lesnar over doping scandal

A FURIOUS Mark Hunt has attacked Brock Lesnar live on air calling the heavyweight a “f***ing cheat”. The comments came after Brock Lesnar was revealed to have tested positive in an out-of-competition drug test. The two fought at UFC 200 last Sunday — a contest that was convincingly won by Lesnar............... “There’s no way he could weigh 265 (pounds) like me — he was about 500 kilos, there was no f***ing way he was weighing in at my weight. It just makes a mockery of the whole sport, it makes a fool out of all of us, all the people who’ve paid money for top end fighting — now all they’ve got is a cheat against a guy who doesn’t cheat. “It’s ridiculous, I think it’s rubbish and I think it’s time for the UFC to stand up. Otherwise I don’t want to be a part of this company and I think there’s a lot of fighters that understand.”"

Well it's no surprise he was on the juice. At the weigh in he was massive. Looked better than ever. But it sucks, I'm sick of testing. Let's go back to pretend testing where no one gets caught but the public thinks it's legit testing.


I'm thinking Aldo next to be caught?

 

[steveP]

This sums it up pretty well.

 

[spartacus]

depends on what test they used.

 

[Bazza20]

Another one gone. Chad Mendes out for two years.

Conor McGregor next??????

Heard Brendan Schaub, a training partner of Jon Jones at Jacksons, say Jon Jones once hid under "the mat" and pissed there when USADA Officials came to test him once. Schaub was saying that this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Jones.

Mark Hunt reckons Lesnar was well over the weight limit. Interestingly the weigh ins for UFC200 were conducted before the on stage weigh ins. The UFC does have a vested interest in having a WWE Star fight. It brings all the WWE dickhead fan boys over to buy PPVs.

Could they (the UFC) get away with tampering with weigh ins????

I doubt it. The weigh in would be under control of the athletic commission Independent of the UFC.

They did the separate weigh in to help the fighters. Early official weigh in to give them more time to recover. Then the one for the media later on.

Yeah i think they have changed they weigh in as well, previously they were given a time to weigh in the day before, now i am pretty sure they are given a window of time from 10am till 2pm or something like that and you can weigh in any time during this window.

The weigh ins themselves have nothing directly to do with the UFC

I'm still waiting for holly holm to get busted. I'm guessing she has at least been on at some point. I think USADA must think the same as she was one of the most tested UFC athletes in a recent article.

 

[Bazza20]

Bit of surprise. Holly Holm easily beaten in the striking. The Russian chick easily picked her apart.

 

[Stiffy]

You reckon the Jon Jones bust put a scare through that camp?

Jon Jones' Brother given a PED violation in the NFL as well.

Well the chemist they were hiring didn't get the drugs right.
