Den senaste bokningen till UFC 200 blir även en av de större – bokstavligt talat. Tungviktslegenden Brock Lesnar gör comeback, men Mark Hunt tänker visa honom skillnaden på deltidare och riktiga fighters.
Brock Lesnar (5-3) har inte fightats sedan 2011, men är nu på väg tillbaka in i oktagonen. Under den tiden har Mark Hunt (12-10) gått nio matcher, varav sex har vunnits på T/KO. På UFC 200 möts de.
På sin hemsida kommenterade Hunt bokningen.
”When I was asked a few weeks ago to stay ready for July, I was very pumped man. I had no idea it would be Brock, but like everything it doesn’t matter who I fight they are going to get it good and proper when I step inside the cage.
I deal with a wrestler like I deal with every other fighter. I punch them in the mouth.”
Hunt verkar självsäker inför fighten och lovar att knocka Lesnar ordentligt. Han anklagar rentav Lesnar för att vara en låtsasfighter.
”If he has an itch to scratch I will scratch it for him. I ain’t no part time fighter. He thinks this is a game where he can come back and forth. I will send this pretender back so he can play house with the other part timers. This realm is for the real fighters, not these damn pretenders.
It’s time for ‘punch face’, a game I have been playing for many years. I’ll knock his face off. I knock his mouth off and then his lips fly off.”
Lesnar själv menar att Hunt är körd om matchen går till marken.
