Welcome to Midnight Mania!
“The Super Samoan” Mark Hunt is an interested observer of the quickly deteriorating relationship between UFC and United States Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) to say the least. UFC opted not to continue with USADA in 2024, and the organization responded by blasting UFC’s lack of professionalism and bias towards Conor McGregor. UFC has threatened legal action in response, as well as found a new drug testing agency to oversee its roster.
What does all this have to do with a long retired Heavyweight knockout artist?
Hunt has been suing UFC for the better part of the last seven years after his UFC 200 bout against Brock Lesnar. Lesnar failed a drug test after their bout, which overturned his victory over Hunt, but “The Super Samoan” argued that UFC knew Lesnar was using performance enhancing drugs (PEDs) and thus put his health at risk needlessly. Just last month, Hunt’s court case was dismissed, a costly defeat for the kickboxing legend.
Unsurprisingly, Hunt thinks the real scumbag in the UFC vs. USADA beef is UFC CEO Dana White. He also thinks UFC purposely waited until his lawsuit was dismissed before getting rid of USADA.
The only scumbag gutterdog is u worthless fkn mutt @danawhite imagine waiting for my lawsuit to end so u could try force usada to put McGregor in without testing why make rules when u dont follow them or enforce them yourself it isnt over yet boi
Another target of Hunt’s ire? Grappling phenom and apparent steroid expert Gordon Ryan. Ryan was excited that UFC was dismissing USADA, but Hunt believes he should get in the cage himself before he offers his thoughts.
What does this idiot know about fighting @gordonlovesjiujitsu maybe have at least one proper fight before u start talking dikhead maybe i should get on the sauce and stomp your face see how u like it
Hunt remains the greatest warrior poet of our time.
The Kiwi athlete retired from MMA in 2018 after a trio of losses to names like Curtis Blaydes and Aleksei Oleinik, but he did manage to challenge for the title in 2014 and put on a “Fight of the Year” against Antonio Silva in 2013. Since retiring from MMA, Hunt has entered the boxing ring twice, going 1-1.
