Nyligen planerades det in ett tungviktsmöte inför UFC 209 den 4 mars, då inga mindre än Mark Hunt och Alistair Overeem kommer att mötas inne i oktogonen. Hunt har under den senaste tiden gått till hård attack mot alla som dopar sig i organisationen, och levererar nu en varning till Overeem.
Mark tänker nämligen stämma Alistair om han skulle testa positivt inför evenemanget, och detta hade han att säga via ”Stuff.co.nz”:
I’m not young, I’m 42 years old. In six months I’ve already missed out on a couple of fights, I’ve already missed out on a couple million dollars. At the end of the day I’ve stuck to my word. I’ve got no option, I’m in a contract that I can’t get out of. I had no other option. I can’t work anywhere else so what am I supposed to do, let my family starve?
Every fighter I fight, if he gets caught through the process then I’ll sue him personally. If I don’t get help from the company I’ll do it myself. They (dopers) should be struck from the records and taken everything off them. They don’t deserve to get a cent. This sport is already harsh enough as it is. When you add in steroid use it makes it even worse.
