In his most recent bout before this, he gave up a decision to the returning Brock Lesnar \u2013 though this result was overturned when Lesnar tested positive for the banned substance clomiphene.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to his disastrous encounter with Lesnar, Hunt scored back-to-back knockouts over Antonio &#8220;Bigfoot&#8221; Silva and Frank Mir. The heavyweight veteran is currently embroiled in a legal battle with Lesnar, the UFC, and UFC President Dana White \u2013 all stemming from Lesnar&#8217;s failed drug test.<\/p>\n<p>Lewis, on the other hand, will step onto the canvas in New Zealand on a six-fight streak. In his last bout, he weathered and early bit of adversity to hammer Travis Browne to a second round-TKO. In his five most recent bouts before this, he defeated Viktor Pesta, Damian Grabowski, Gabriel Gonzaga, Roy Nelson and Shamil Abdurakhimov. Only Nelson survived a full three rounds with the hulking American.<\/p>\n<p>What do you think of Mark Hunt&#8217;s new chest <a href=\"http:\/\/staging.tcpcharms.com\/bjpenn\/mma-news\/michael-bisping\/photo-fan-gets-michael-bisping-tattoo-following-ufc-204-win\/\">tattoo<\/a>?
