Lesnar said himself that this is a matchup of styles as he will look to engage as the grappler against the hard hitting striker, Hunt. Lesnar said on ESPN, “If Mark ends up on the ground, the fight’s over.”
Lesnar has not competed in mixed martial arts since his 2011 loss to Alistair Overeem at UFC 141. However, the remarkable athlete has proved that he has more than what it takes to beat the best in the game.
“The Super Samoan” is coming off two first-round knockout wins and will look to add another to his resume as he gets this mega fight with the WWE star.
