I hope Hunt gets the walkoff KO in this one.  Lewis is dangerous though.

If Hunt can still take a punch at all he should win this one. He is a much better striker from a technical level. He has been KO'd a few times lately, one of them being just 3 months ago. That worries me a bit. Should be entertaining either way.

I feel the same way. This is one of those UFC fights I am really looking forward to. Always cool to see Mark Hunt fighting and Lewis has been impressive (aside from his last fight which he still won).

Be great to see the walk of knock out as for the co main this should test to see if Dan Kelly is ready for the top ten I know he has that win of rashard but rashard Is on the down slide and had never competed in the 84kg division .
Still I'm rooting for hunt and Kelly super Samoan and the super dad bod .

Hunt is not in a good mind state he's distracted with his legal battles and lewis is a strong wrestler i doubt he stands with hunt long.

He will look to take him down and gnp finish early.

Which is my pick.

I truly hope hunt wins but my gut says hunt gets the Lesnar tres
treatment again.

That's right, this is another big test for Kelly. He surprised a lot of people in his last fight. Would be cool to see him do it again.

Yup, got to pull for Hunt in this one.

I hope Hunt can thwart Lewis take down attempts and keep this standing which is his best chance of winning this fight. That legal stuff can definitely be a distraction. I am going with Hunt in this one by TKO round 3 but I wouldn't be surprised either way. This is an interesting fight.

Hopefully not the Lesnar treatment. Remember how many steroids it took for Lesnar to control Hunt like that. Lewis is strong but he wasn't constructed in a chemical facility.

Pichel ended fight with nice uppercut.  First finish in this event.

Watch out for Cutelaba. What a quick vicious finish.

Round 4 TKO for Hunt! Was great to see him get another win, this time against a big up-and-comer. Still going strong at 43.

I was surprised that Lewis had no chance at all of taking Hunt down. He made a couple attempts but there was no way that was happening. When I saw that, confidence in Hunt winning the fight definitely started growing.

I was hoping to see another big Kelly upset but he got taken out.  Brunson looked good.  The prelims for this card were a bit lack luster with few finishes but then the event really picked up and turned out to be entertaining.

Kelly finally looked how he should his opponents generally overlook and undertrain for him......brunson knocked his block clean off lol.

Cutelaba looked good but frankenstein fights like his nickname straight up no head movement lol he got starched.

Hunt GOT the tko!!!!

I think he started slow nd didnt look very accurate until the later rounds when lewis gassed.

Lewis is a fucking idiot.....worst gameplan in a long time that I've seen.Instead of throwing combos working in takedowns gradually and using his massive reach advantage he screws the pooch.

At 380+lbs why would your gameplan be explode with single big punches in the pocket as hunt moves in?then throw only power single syrike like head kicks,flying knees,and right hands.Then use telegraphed nearly standing straight up and down takedown attempts?


He fought the exact fight for hunt to cruise to victory when he has the tools to win.

I hear lewis is contemplating retiring from mma lol after just renewing his ufc contract and getting dealt a big paying deal.

He's got no brains,and seems like no heart maybe he should retire...?

Frankenstein Silva did fight like his nickname, I agree. Cutelaba smashed him. Not sure if Cutelaba is as good as he claims to be yet but he could be a decent up-and-comer.

So glad to see Hunto get that TKO. He did bide his time in there and Lewis gassed so bad with his hands on his hips for two rounds. Hunt's TD defense was rock solid and he wore Lewis out on the feet. I doubt Lewis is really retiring though. Lewis punches were crazy wild haymakers half the time. Hunt slipped each one with ease although a couple came close and could have ended the night. It was just great to see Hunt get the stoppage and plans to continue fighting out his contract.

Nice

I hope Hunt goes to Bellator or Rizin after his ufc contact. Glad he got the win.

That would be cool. I think he has 2 fights on his contract left now and he has his problems with the UFC due to the steroid deal. It's definitely possible if he wants to keep on fighting. It'd be nice to see him back in the ring in Japan.

Mark Hunt is now #6 HW inn world on Fight Matrix.
