It’s been nearly a week since it was revealed that former UFC champion Brock Lesnar would be returning to the Octagon at UFC 200<\/a>. Since then, it has also been revealed that Lesnar will be fighting fan-favorite heavyweight Mark Hunt, and that he has been granted an exemption from USADA random drug testing.<\/a><\/p>\n

Ahead of the fight, Mark Hunt is rather unhappy with Lesnar being granted a USADA exemption. He spoke to UFC Fight Week on Fox Sports:<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think that\u2019s fair. I think it\u2019s load of bulls***, I think it\u2019s rubbish,\u201d Hunt told UFC FIGHT WEEK on Fox Sports in an exclusive interview. \u201cI don\u2019t think anyone should be exempt from testing. If they\u2019re trying to clean the sport up \u2014 mixed martial arts \u2014 this is a bad way to do it. I don\u2019t care who you are. It\u2019s ridiculous.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t think it\u2019s a great move. I think he\u2019s juiced to the gills \u2014 and I still think I\u2019m going to knock him out. So I don\u2019t think that\u2019s correct. I don\u2019t think he should be allowed to get a four-month exemption otherwise everyone else should. Otherwise I should start juicing.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow are you going to clean the sport up doing that s***? It won\u2019t happen. I don\u2019t think it\u2019s fair.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve already voiced my opinion to (UFC boss) Dana (White) about it but apparently he (Lesnar) has been getting tested but he\u2019s probably been off a couple of cycles anyway.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think everyone should be tested equally and fairly. Make it an even playing field otherwise you might as well get everyone juiced up and have the juicing UFC competition and the non-juicing (competition).\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
