Tungviktaren Mark Hunt har sedan matchen mot Brock Lesnar visat sitt missnöje med sin arbetsgivare, UFC, sedan det framkommit att Lesnar testat positivt vid två dopningskontroller. I det senaste avsnittet av The MMA Hour berättar Hunt att UFC mer eller mindre tvingade honom att ta matchen mot Alistair Overeem.
They put me in a position, like well what am I supposed to do? They forced this fight on me, pretty much. I couldn’t go anywhere else. If I couldn’t work anywhere else and I’m still trying to get my fair deal in this thing, what am I supposed to do? If they’re going to let me go, let me go. At least I can go work somewhere else. I’ve gotta look after my family and my commitments as well. And they can’t just sit me at the back of the bus without having any work. You can’t do that.
Hunt kommer att möta Overeem den 4:e mars på UFC 209 i Las Vegas.
