Gazz Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 There's some trouble brewing for Saturday's UFC Fight Night 52 event in Japan, as main event fighter Mark Hunt is significantly overweight less than 24 hours out from the weigh-ins.According to a report from Kevin Iole at Yahoo! Sports, Hunt started his camp at a ridiculous 340 lbs., and has only gotten down to 284 lbs., leaving 19 lbs. left to go to the 265 lb. heavyweight limit. He's allowed an extra pound allowance, but that still means 18 lbs. left to shed. 340lbs! Hunt, you tubby bastard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted September 19, 2014 Report Share Posted September 19, 2014 But he is 10x more awesome 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 So, um, Wanderlei announced his retirement, Anthony Johnson is suspended indefinitely due to some past domestic violence offenses being brought to light, and Thiago Silva has been released (again). Man, the light heavyweight division is all kinds of fun, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 Oh, and because it's so damn entertaining (in the worst way), here's Wanderlei announcing his retirement while he rips the UFC: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HvZPUewM68#t=22 I fucking love how Brazilians just love to defend each other, no matter what.

SRN Posted September 20, 2014 Report Share Posted September 20, 2014 (edited) Mark Hunt! Since my WWE Network subscription is up, I have switched to UFC Fight Pass for a free week, just to check it out. Glad I could debut with a beautiful Hunt KO. However, what is going on with that Heavyweight top #10? Hunt, Arlovski, Rothwell has beat Overeem, Barnett? Is this UFC bizarro world? And the post-event weight division run-down was great; especially seeing that my man Khabib Nurmagomedov is near the top in the Lightweight division. He is still the owner of the very best weigh-in shirt in UFC history. Edited September 20, 2014 by SRN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
