Reporter Asks Mark Hunt If He's In Shape, Watch His Response

The guy asked what kind of shape Mark Hunt was in, Hunt’s reaction is priceless…

Former K-1 world grand prix champion, Pride FC veteran and current UFC heavyweight contender Mark Hunt is perhaps the most likeable character in modern mixed martial arts. ‘The Super Samoan’ doesn’t just have a fan friendly style with his one punch walk off knockouts, he’s also one of the humblest men you’ll ever come across in the fight game. He meets former UFC heavyweight champion Frank Mir at this weekend’s stacked UFC Fight Night 85 card, and does so in front of a crowd that will be heavily on the New Zealander’s side.

In Mir, Hunt faces an accomplished and highly dangerous grappler who can also strike with significant knockout power, but the one shot ability of ‘The Super Samoan’ has seen him create highlight reels of many dangerous men over the years. One question that is ever hovering when Hunt is concerned is the shape he’s in. Against Stipe Miocic and Fabricio Werdum we saw the popular kickboxer go down in horrific losses, these defeats also displayed possibly the worst shape the heavyweight striker has appeared in during his UFC run.

Over the recent months we’ve seen numerous pictures of Hunt training in Thailand with the likes of John Wayne Parr, and his physique, although covered by tees and vests, has looked far more trim and muscular. Now, during an interview with our good friends down under Submission Radio, ‘The Super Samoan’ finally reveals what shape he’s in for tomorrow’s (Saturday March 19) bout against Frank Mir. Check it out, the stripping begins at around the 4:00 mark:
