UFC heavyweight contender Mark Hunt is still trying to prove to everyone he’s not suffering any ill effects as a result of his tough fight career. The promotion pulled Hunt from his fight against Marcin Tybura after he did an interview saying he’s already dealing with head trauma issues.
“My body is (expletive) but my mind is still here. I’ve still got my senses about me and I know what’s right and wrong, which is the main thing. Sometimes I don’t sleep well.” Hunt said in a blog on Players Voice. “You can hear me starting to stutter and slur my words. My memory is not that good anymore. I’ll forget something I did yesterday but I can remember the (expletive) I did years and years ago. That’s just the price I’ve paid – the price of being a fighter. But I’ve fought a lot of drug cheats and copped a lot of punishment from guys who were cheating and that’s not right.”
After the UFC pulled him, Hunt went off on UFC President Dana White and claimed that this was all just a personal attack.
“I’m disappointed that I have been withdrawn from the fight, I have passed all medicals 2 days ago. And spent 100,000 on camp. The truth is the legal case I have filed has caused me to be withdrawn. The interview has been taken out of context and want to reassure all my fans, I slur my words only when I have a drink I’m fit and healthy, and would have understood if the UFC requested a medical to ensure my safety, however this is total bullshit fuck you Dana, you’ve always hated me you dog” Hunt said on his social media.
Mark Hunt is still trying to prove that he’s not feeling any ill effects of his countless wars over the years. In fact, he posted a few more pics in an attempt to show he’s still got his wits about him.
