Former UFC fighter, Mark Hunt is experiencing conflict with the organization and has now given his opinion on the 'musical attack' made by Jake Paul to the president of Ultimate, Dana White. In an interview with 'Radio Submission', the New Zealander stated that he has had experiences similar to those reported by the YouTuber in the video.

“He is doing the right thing, because he has good information. This video is funny, but true and it happened to me. (…) I don't know if he's right when he insults other fighters, because they're trying to do their jobs. But it's the company and people like Dana (White, UFC president) are trying to f*** the athletes. I don’t know why they think he’s a good person since he’s just an excellent businessman,” Hunt said.

PUBLICITY:

The 'feud' of Mark Hunt and Dana White started after the New Zealander's lawsuit filed against the UFC in 2017, after his fight against Brock Lesnar. At the time, he lost in a unanimous decision by the judges, but saw the setback reversed in a 'no contest', after the North American tested positive for the use of clomiphene – used, on many occasions, to mask the use of androgenic anabolics. Therefore, Hunt accused the UFC of having 'hidden' the test results from his opponent and went to court with eight separate actions related to bad faith agreements, extortion and fraud.
