Apparently Mark Hunt isn’t overly thrilled with the fact that the UFC and USADA will be giving Brock Lesnar an exemption for his testing according to the policy.
As noted, USADA’s policy calls for retired fighters to be tested when they come back, however Lesnar will not have to do so.
“I don’t think that’s fair. I think it’s a load of bullsh*t, I think it’s rubbish,” Hunt told UFC FIGHT WEEK on Fox Sports in an exclusive interview. “I don’t think anyone should be exempt from testing. If they’re trying to clean the sport up — mixed martial arts — this is a bad way to do it. I don’t care who you are. It’s ridiculous.”
Hunt continued, “I don’t think it’s a great move. I think he’s juiced to the gills — and I still think I’m going to knock him out. So I don’t think that’s correct. I don’t think he should be allowed to get a four-month exemption otherwise everyone else should. Otherwise I should start juicing.”
A very honest Hunt elaborated.
“How are you going to clean the sport up doing that sh*t? It won’t happen. I don’t think it’s fair. I’ve already voiced my opinion to (UFC boss) Dana (White) about it but apparently he (Lesnar) has been getting tested but he’s probably been off a couple of cycles anyway.”
Hunt concluded, “Shucks. I don’t give a rats what you take. I’ll knock your face off, that’s what I’ll do. I’ll teach you for taking that sh*t anyway.”
Hunt vs. Lesnar is scheduled as the co-main event for UFC 200 on July 9, 2016 from the brand new T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
