UFC Fight Night 136: Mark Hunt vs. Alexey Oleinik & Nikita Krylov vs. Jan Błachowicz RBR

This is probably what would happen if Till and Covington ever fight each other.

 

It's a good fight for both at this stage of their respective careers IMO.

 

I am gutted at Hunt losing ! And 5 mins after the loss my kid throws up all over me lol

What a night

 

That be his final fight, id like to see that one

 

I'd quite like Hunt Vs Ngannou tbh.

I mean I know Hunt is old don't get me wrong, but if you look at his last 7 years, once he'd got his **** together, he's been on a good run.

I mean JDS and Reem bombed him something special and we all know Miococ kicked ten living bells of **** out of him, but they're ATG level fighters, the rest of the fights he's been in he's out struck everyone when it's been standing and showed a poor defence whenever grappling has been involved. Basically I'm saying I don't think he's actually declined that much.

Blaydes, Werdum and Oliynik weren't able to out strike him, two were able to beat him on the mat and one landed a hail Mary counter knee which knocked him out.

But other than that is he really that far removed from how he's ever been in the UFC? He's still quicker than most big guys out there, can out strike almost anyone and is useless on the mat.

Arlovski for instance has any chance of grappling him to a points loss, but on the slip side Hunt could very easily knock out Francis and Volkov which are both 50/50 fights. I'd probably favour him over Lewis again.

I'm not saying he's still in his prime but he's still very dangerous and against the right opponent, even a high ranked one. Arlovski is definitely savvy enough to stay out of range and beat him though imo.

 

Just watched the Hunt v Oleinik fight, it always sucks when Hunt loses but Oleinik is such a nice guy I couldn't stop laughing at Oleiniks expression when he knocked Hunt down with about 1:30 left in the round, he looked shocked and almost apologetic
