What do you guys think about Mark hunt

wack · 04-26-2006, 06:45 AM

In the MMA how do you think he is doing/how he will do

Kostya · 04-26-2006, 06:56 AM

well
the guy is going well so far......has he lost since yoshi?
personally I "hope" he becomes champ one day

Watch Out Bro · 04-26-2006, 06:58 AM

Who is he fighting again in the first round ?

I think against brawlers he will do fine but against fighters as Nog, Werdum will sub him.

He still got to work his groundgame, but wait and see what will happen.

He's defenitaly entertaining to watch if they dare to fight him like a man

Mudrock · 04-26-2006, 07:19 AM

I think he'll do well, he seems to have good instincts for MMA, he has good scrambling for a relative MMA newbie and is very strong and quick with great stamina when he's in shape. He also seems to have a good sense of ground work in general.

Kostya · 04-26-2006, 08:31 AM

Dont forget his granite chin and ko power in both hands

Red Eagle · 04-26-2006, 10:30 AM

He's the perfect foil.

***Arne*** · 04-26-2006, 12:43 PM

Well.. he can do well..
but if he continues his work with Einemo.. he can learn alot..

leon3033 · 04-26-2006, 01:03 PM

Hunt is a great fighter with dynamite ins his punches.

I am sure he becomes champ one day

jakelo · 04-26-2006, 01:31 PM

Like Quadros said I think, very good natural street fight skills. No doubt his job is in the ring. And 1000% YES, I also hope like most of people he will go far in MMA !

I hope at his point he can still learn serious ground defenses.

Rappy Gilmore · 04-26-2006, 01:44 PM

I'll tell you after I see what shape he's in for this fight. He seems to me to be a hot and cold fighter with his last fight being cold. I also want to see him face a fighter with serious ground skills......one that's under the age of 50....which means that TK doesn't cut it.

Big Feet · 04-26-2006, 04:23 PM

He's still green to MMA but man is he has natural talent. Einemo should sort out Hunt's ground game. The problem is that already being a successful K-1 fighter he'll get thrown in with the top guys pretty quick. It's do or die but because he's a Samoan Monster I think he'll do just fine.

Dormath · 04-26-2006, 06:59 PM

he is doing well for just starting and he will be a champ one day i think.

Pancake Sprawl · 04-26-2006, 07:30 PM

all i want to see is Fedor fight him. after that he can fight who ever he wants but all i wanna see is how Fedor fights a guy shorter and stockier than he is.

Leopard · 04-26-2006, 07:45 PM

Well, he sounds like a nice guy and, depending on his opponent, his fights can be exciting, he's very entertaining and with him we get to see stuf like butt and knee drops, not to mention his KO power, which is immense, but i hope he never gets to be Pride champion, ever.

Why? Because he's not the best fighter out there, let's be honest, as much as we may like him if it wasn't for his brick head and the fact that he's usually much heavier than his opponents he would never have gotten so far in the fight game.
He's very powerful, but so are other guys, i think his hard head is his most important tool.~

I'd rather see guys like Fedor, Mirko, Nogueira and others (if we're just talking about heavyweights) that are skillful in a level Hunt isn't, winning the imortant titles.

But this doesn't mean i don't like him or that i don't want him winning fights.

yeah, but that's a given already. i want to see how Fedor takes him down.

Rappy Gilmore · 04-26-2006, 11:12 PM

He also sounds like a really chillin guy. After he defeated Mirko...(NYE??) he didn't celebrate at all.....just went back to his room and took it easy......if I remember correctly.

wack · 04-27-2006, 06:03 AM

yeah his ground game is getting good aye , when he is in new zealand he trains at the gym i go to with steve oliver , man you should see them training theres no love sometimes

Kostya · 04-27-2006, 08:25 AM

sweet man
id hate to spar Hunt on a bad day

FattyBingRips · 04-27-2006, 09:21 AM

mark hunt has transitioned into mma better than mirko in my opinion. Mirko was never a K-1 Grand champ, and mirko doesn't seem as wily or seem to have the raw aggression that hunt has. Mark was always one of my favorite fighters, so of course I will always go for him in any fight, no matter who he goes against. and like the pancake said, once he fights fedor I'll be truly happy
