Hunt accuses Lesnar of being ‘juiced to the gills’

Yesterday it was revealed that Brock Lesnar will be granted an exemption to USADA’s rule that an athlete must submit to drug testing for four months prior to returning to the UFC after retirement.

Lesnar was granted an exemption as he left the organization five years ago before the implementation of USADA’s drug testing policy and thus will be treated the same as an athlete new to the organization.

Today, Mark Hunt was interviewed by FOX Sports Australia and talked about Lesnar’s exemption and blatantly accused Lesnar of PED use:

I don’t think that’s fair. I think it’s load of bulls***, I think it’s rubbish, Hunt told UFC FIGHT WEEK on Fox Sports in an exclusive interview. I don’t think anyone should be exempt from testing. If they’re trying to clean the sport up — mixed martial arts — this is a bad way to do it. I don’t care who you are. It’s ridiculous.

I don’t think it’s a great move. I think he’s juiced to the gills — and I still think I’m going to knock him out. So I don’t think that’s correct. I don’t think he should be allowed to get a four-month exemption otherwise everyone else should. Otherwise I should start juicing.

How are you going to clean the sport up doing that s***? It won’t happen. I don’t think it’s fair.
