Is Hunt being over confident?

I know its a fight, but he is giving Brock zero props, respect, or credit for returning after the Diverticulosis thing.

Brock didnt quit the UFC, he had an infection. No I am not a wwe fan, but there is no way you can overlook Brocks size and wrestling credentials. We all know he doesnt like to be punched, and that Hunt hits hard. But if Brock gets on top of you, good luck...

Theres a good chance Hunt wouldnt even be on this card if it werent for Lesnar.

I think Brock can take a punch, its just the panic mode he has to worry about if he gets blasted is all...

Then again, maybe Hunt is acting like this formore confidence as well...
 
No, he is 42 years old now and has paid the price earlier in his career for being overconfident by entering MMA fights with no grappling skills.

Are you expecting him to worship Lesnar? Hunt looks up to no one but he also looks down on no one, that's why every fighter likes him.
 
'If it hits the ground, the fights over'. Sounds like Brock is not giving Hunt any respect.
 
In at least one video i've seen recently, Hunt specifically states that he respects Lesnar and points out that Bork is a former champ, something he has yet to accomplish in mma.
 
i love both fighters but i just cant see how brock gets the takedown. he goes close he goes nite nite
 
Im not hating on Hunt, damn...Im just saying what I feel is all...

He very well can drop Brock, but I doubt he can get a walk off though...He will have to jump on him if it does happen...
 
He has given him props. Said he was UFC champ, thats something I haven't done.

You really can't see how a 285 lbs former D1 champ and current professional wrassler can't get the takedown? I think he gets the TD easy! Can't wait for this fight. The outcome seems so obvious to everyone - either one punch walk away KO from GNP from Brock until the ref mercifully steps in.
 
Im a fan of both guys eventhough I am rooting for Hunt, but he does indeed sound like he's taking Brock too lightly. Time will tell if he'll pay for that
 
I would be confident too if my opponent has not fought in 5 years on a two defeat losing streak
 
I hope hunt doesn't get herring, underestimated lesnar and got embarassed
 
Well Hunt always seems confident in every fight, but he better be ready from the first second in this fight because I got a feeling Brock is gonna bull rush him hard and if Hunt is sluggish he is gonna get dumped on his ass and he won't be able to get up
 
I do agree that there is no question that Brock can take a punch (e.g. Carwin, Valesquez). His reaction though, is something that he's hopefully ironed out more in training.

Either way, he'll need to keep that chin tucked in. Hunt's proven that he can find a home for his fists on both taller guys (Struve) and those closer to his height (Big Country).
 
hunt will get taken down but will win by kimura from guard
 
He's either over confident or he's very nervous and putting up a front.
