    i cant believe a guy with such a huge resume will fight in a prelim on ufc

    i wonder why hes not coming in as a mma & K1 superstar

    maybe bcause hes on a slump

    any thoughts ?

    Multiple losses will do that.

    McCorkle is a HUGE man and will probably have real trouble making 265lbs.

    He posts on the underground forum.

    Trains with Tim Sylvia.

    I'm sure they've put a lot of thought into their line up.

    There will be plenty of extra time on either Spike or the ppv telecast to replay important fights. If Hunt destroys McCorkle, they can replay the fight as they talk up Hunt's comeback. If McCorkle looks good against Hunt, there is a new prospect to hype. If the fight ends up a dud they haven't really lost anything.

    He's had 5 losses in a row. They've brought him in to lose to a prospect me thinks. Decent test though.

    Hunt is a ****ing legend, but he's washed up and shot to pieces.
