Super Samoan Mark Hunt Viciously KO’d By Alistair Overeem!

UFC208 went down in Las Vegas at the weekend. And, while it might not have been top billing, most fight fans were excited about Mark Hunt Vs. Alistair Overeem more than any other fight.

Hunt and the UFC are still at war over that whole Brock Lesnar being on drugs thing, so Dana White & Co. were probably quite pleased to see how the fight ended up going down…

42 year one punch specialist Hunt ended up getting knocked out by the Dutchman. He lost to Overeem for the second time in his career, the first time being back in 2008.
