Mark Hunt is one of the heaviest hitters in a division full of heavy hitters, and coming into his fight with Stipe Miocic knows that it can only take one shot:
As for the matchup with the ever-improving Miocic, Hunt seems to be putting a lot of faith in his own legendary striking power. The “Super Samoan” knows that, even at 40 years of age, he can still sleep anyone in the world with a well-placed punch or kick.
“It doesn’t matter how technical you are. You get hit once, it’s lights out baby,” he explained.
“But I respect Stipe like all my opponents. You know I only made that mistake one time and I got knocked out by Melvin Manhoef. I didn’t respect him but you know you learn, you move on, and come May 10th we’re going to be gunning for each other. So it’s going to be great.”
