The New Zealander Mark Hunt knocked out the North American Roy Nelson in the main fight of UFC Fight Night 52, but he is already thinking about the future. After defeating the favorite in the main fight of the event held in the early hours of last Saturday (20), he is already thinking about his return to the Octagon.

Hunt, currently number six in the heavyweight rankings, wants to take advantage of his good form and has asked for a place in the event scheduled for Australia, on November 7th.

PUBLICITY:

“My desire is to climb another step in the rankings to have my chance to fight for the belt. My goal is to fight for the title. But of course I wouldn't refuse to face someone who wasn't among the best ranked, if it were in Sydney. What’s up boss?” asked Hunt.
