Brock vs Hunt: Props to the UFC for ACE matchmaking

[The Big Bang]

Although Brock isn't taking it very seriously, (for example, he mocked Ariel's question at the UFC 200 pre-fight presser about how many rounds he sparred for this fight) he has a GREAT chance to win, especially early.

Hunt is an OLD war horse (by fighting standards) that most people love, yet he can still fucking PUNCH. (as plodding and predictable as he may be)

Brock is a freak of nature whom people also love, or...love to hate, and although he REALLY doesn't like to get hit, Hunt is far removed from his prime, and should Brock take him down from the start...good luck Hunt.

All in all, it hearkens back to freak show fights of old...

One off or not, bring it on.

He might have been mocking him just for the hell of it. That usually happens when Ariel asks a pressing question like that. I haven't watched the interviews yet though, probably will before bed.

Surprised they'd feed Lesnar to Hunt. Struve or Carwin would have made more sense. But props to Brock for taking on Mark when he could of easily demanded someone else.

Epic match making, this is some pride king kong vs godzilla shit.

 

[CannotWin]

That is a great fight to instantly make Brock relevant in the division if he wins, and a fight he for sure could win. I like this matchmaking as well!

 

[HI SCOTT NEWMAN]

Great match making, agreed

Let's hope its a great fight and not a quick KO.

Brock isn't taking the fight seriously because he goofed on Ariel?

WTF?

I cant believe how excited I am for this fight, props to Brock for taking on such a stud in Hunt and this is Hunt's chance to really become main stream if he finishes him with another walk away, Saturday cant come soon enough

Dana said Brock never turned down a fight.
He always said "whomever"
The only fight he asked for was Mir (II)

Too bad Murr dun got did in by kangaroo meat... now Brock will have to pay with his consciousness.

Great Match-Up!

Striker vs. Wrestler is alwayz a classic match up. Glad to see Brock is not being spoon fed & gets a legit legend to come back to!

Yes, very interesting.

Most likely outcome is that a bunch of casual fans end up like, "How does a guy who looks like that Hunt guy have so much strength?" Fights like this are always good for schooling up the average Joe on getting over their obsession with Hollywood physiques.
