You can’t go and air the fact that you’re having problems and expect everyone to say “oh, it’s mark hunt, let him fight because that’s what he does”. By the way, iPhone autocorrected because with “brocade”.....
Mark Hunt threatens another lawsuit after fight removal, curses 'bald-headed prick' Dana White
- Thread starter nuraknu
- Start date
Hunt needs better representation. He's starting to look really bad here
He's still underpaid, and those other guys (especially the ones fighting on main cards) that he makes more than should also be speaking out. If Hunt's lawsuit was just about "bitching", it would've been dismissed by now.

Yeah I don't see how Dana was in the wrong for this one. Mark should have kept that to himself, he fucked himself over.
According to Hunt his interview about slurring his words was not the reason he was pulled

He needs a good PR rep though. Privately he's going about it the smart way with actual legal
representation to try to effect positive change but publicly.... It's just not a good look now. He's
coming off bitter (which he does have a right to be), whiny and a bit punch drunk and mentally unfit
Someone needs to help him on the public front with all of this
You make some good points, but I don't agree that Hunt is "whiny" or "a bit punch drunk and mentally unfit", although he absolutely seems "bitter" about the state of the sport, as he should be.
Most fighters, especially those ranked in the top ten, could benefit greatly from having some kind of personal media advisor or PR agent.
Maybe it's being american but I've always been a bit confused about always wanting the same hometown guy on cards. I've always wanted to see international guys fighting when I go to shows. How many times do you want to watch Bisping or hunt when the UFC comes to town 1 or 2 times a year?
I'm voting with my $.
Not attending this event now.
My ticket loss might bankrupt them, so apologies in advance.
I think you might have a different perspective if you didn't get to attend so many events - I wonder how many people at UFC shows are first- or second-timers vs. regulars.
I agree that may be part of it. For me it has always been about seeing all the different great fighters. I've also always been more interested in the brazilian, Asian, or Russian fighters. I guess if I had been ableto see Hunt fight already. I'd be excited about a chance to see another great in Werdum.

Solidarity brother.
Fair call, Hunto has always been my favorite fighter (Kiwi / Aussie thing) so I get a bit nut hugger-ish about his fights.
UFC 110 (first AU card) was packed full of internationals and it was amazing to watch.
He’s going to piss away all his money trying to fight a giant that can write all of this off against taxes and make it go on forever......
I agree 100%
Maybe it's really convenient for the fighters to fight in their hometown or at least in their timezone; but when the *international-around-the-world-biggest-mma-league UFC comes to Germany, I'd rather see some of that appeal and see some people from all kinds of places duke it out inside the Octagon, instead of the UFC trying to put as many Europeans on the card as possible.
Watching people from all differents parts of the world, cultures and physiques punch each other in the face in honest competition makes me just feel more connected to the human race as a whole, I guess
Also: why the hell would I by default cheer for a guy who is from the same city or country as me?! The guy who fights more corageously is the better guy; also both deserve cheers for stepping up.
To be fair, bisping does well in the uk because they are starved of events and they also put the events at the first of the month so the dreggy dole ass scum that follows bisping can drop their monthly dole check on the event.
Oh, shows my experience and knowledge.....I’ve learned a lot in my studying
Dole cheque is every 2 weeks Momo
