I'm sorry I didn't choose you (Hunt), but come on, man. I mean, Hunt was on a six loss streak; I couldn't do it, I couldn't do it, I couldn't choose him. SORRY....

I'm sorry I doubted your skills Mark Hunt.. even with your six fight losing streak..

Barnett, Fedor, Overeem, Manhoef,  Mousasi, and the exception ( Mccorkle ) They were all tough guys!

Picked Hunt against McCorkle... thought that the ATT training would whip him into shape. After the quick loss I gave up and figured he was done.

Lesson learned. Yesterday showed there's always hope for another atomic butt drop.

Hunt looked much improved yesterday. Of course Tuchscherer looked like trash though. I think training with ATT is really starting to pay off. He's always under the 265 limit, which is good and he was able to fend off the TD better though not perfectly. I'm still not totally sold on Hunt but it's good to see him pick up a win again after such a long losing streak.

I would have had trouble choosing you Mark Hunt, had you not been fighting Chris "The Duster" Tuchscherer.  Nice KO.

Agreed, and the guys he lost to are no slouches at all.

I might agree with that with the exception of McCorkle who is kind of a slouch. If Hunt hadn't looked so bad against McCorkle I might of picked him.

ahahaha! love the apologies. I apologize too. I thought Crowbar was going to smother you but ATT did some work. I will NOT doubt you again, Mr. Hunt.

McCorkle was just a horrible stylistic matchup for Hunt.

And yes, I hope he can gight Pat Berry next!

Barry vs Hunt would be a good fight.  I might give the edge to Hunt as I'm concerned Barry will break his hands and feet on that giant boulder of a head.

Hunt is obviously not going to get far in the division. But it's nice to see him in some hand-picked entertaining fights.

I agree. Hunt will never be close to the top, but I think the UFC can use him to put on fun fights!

Pat Barry is good, but does not have a ground game. If he beat Barry, perhaps put him up against Mitrione afterwards?

I simply am very happy Mark Hunt is in the UFC. Not a top tier guy, but someone I will root for.

Put him in with Beltran, he's a scrapper. A fight between two guys with hard heads would be fun.

hunt almost got kimura'd in the first! Which btw is what i had guessed would happen.
I was happy to be wrong on this fight but hunts sub def didnt look very good still which is what he needs to work on the most.I think chris underestimated hunts power standing.  That uppercut was brutal

Hunt v. Berry would be dope, as would the Hunt v. Cro Cop rematch.
