Wow. I honestly didn't think this was the fight they'd make. Props to all parties involved for giving Lesnar a real challenge ... probably too much.

For now. If the UFC can somehow get Fedor, I'm sure the UFC will be making the call to Vince to work something out again.

The UFC are sacrificing CM Punk, because Punk's first fight in the UFC at UFC 202 will be sponsored and brought to you by, "WWE and SummerSlam"

Prediction: Lesnar  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 2

@Trev yea i wrote it in the other lesnar thread the other day . when Brock resigned with WWE he was able to work into his contract that he could do one last mma fight . he's already Confirmed for Summerslam in August . so people shouldn't go looking into future matchups for him . Hunt is his last fight . 

at first i was worried about this fight with Summerslam being so close. but the more i think of it brock should win pretty easily . he's finally healthy unlike his previous mma fights . and i dont see Hunt stopping his takedowns . if he rushes him like a maniac like he did vs heath Hunt is ****** .

I'll be sitting in the upper level (section 204, row K). I think I might have a good chance of catchng Lesnar's head.

Im pretty sure lesnar will have a hard time taking hunt down, makes sense now that dana is giving him hunt because its a one off fight.

Forget the 4+ year layoff or the fact that Mark Hunt is a tall order for any heavyweight, how will Brock look under the new testing of USADA?

Yeah this doesn't bode well for a guy who is big shot gunshy.  Brock better be getting a big $$$ ... wonder how much the WWE got to allow this?

A +265lb D1 wrestler always has a decent chance against a striker with no ground game. 

I could see this fight going either way.

Hunt's wrestling has come a long way, and Lesnar hasn't fought in a long while. Any time at all that Lesnar spends standing with Hunt, he will spend in imminent danger of being knocked out. 

If Lesnar can go out there and just run Hunt over to the ground basically as soon as the fight starts, like he used to do back when he first got into the UFC, Hunt might be in trouble. 

At 38 years old though, without a fight in 5 years, I doubt it takes Hunt long to put him down.

Lesnar comes back and ends up fighting one of the top 3 hardest hitting guys in UFC...If this was a younger Mark Hunt I would give Lesnar more of a chance but the new Mark Hunt has a much better TDD than he used to and with that said you still need to get close to him to grab him...

Hunt does not have "go ground game" that's ridiculous. He just uses his grappling in reverse.

Prediction: Hunt  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

It has gotten much better though, especially his ability get back up and finally started really getting away from the cage,which IMO will be super important here. I think Hunt-ko-1,but i wouldn't be shocked if Brock looked alright and pulled off a decision,but I really dont think so. I wouldn't say he has no ground game,he makes what he needs to work pretty well.

Prediction: Hunt  |  KO/TKO  |  Round 1

If Lesnar can get a few takedowns, he could win.  Not so hard to imagine.  If Hunt can get his punches and kicks off without getting taken down, he could win, also not hard to imagine.  I would favor Hunt, but Lesnar winning is far from impossible.
