According to our sources, the UFC has been looking to put together a heavyweight bout between Brendan Schaub and Mark Hunt.
The promotion was hoping to bring the duo to their New Zealand debut, but Hunt, still injured, was unable to accept the bout due to timing.
Still though, California’s Brendan Schaub took the news and ran with it, engaging in a battle over twitter with Hunt.
Here it is:
