Hunt demands answers from UFC after Lesnar's new doping

Brock Lesnar is caught in new anti-doping at UFC 200

After failing two exams, Brock Lesnar will be tried for just one doping

Mark Hunt has not yet swallowed the doping episodes involving Brock Lesnar, his rival in the historic UFC 200 event, on July 9th. The New Zealander blasted Ultimate's management for allowing the North American to fight and proposed the creation of an association of fighters in order to prevent the organization's abuses.

Lesnar was confirmed at UFC 200 a month before the event took place. In this way, the giant was freed from the usual anti-doping practice, which requires four months of tests on fighters before they are allowed to fight. However, Lesnar failed two exams, one pre-fight and another carried out on the day of the fight.

Hunt released an angry statement on his official website, in which he criticized the UFC heavily. The “Super Samoan” accused the organization of making arbitrary decisions and, on top of that, making money at the expense of the athletes’ blood. Check out what the fighter said:

“I see that doping Brock Lesnar It's just another reason why we need a fighters association. These guys are making the rules the way they want. First, with the Reebok bid, then with Brock allowing four months of testing. Conor [McGregor] was removed from a card for not attending a press conference that neither Brock nor I would attend. Solve this. There are probably a lot of other [problems].

They say they're cleaning up the sport, and yet I've risked my health twice against guys who have been cheating since the USADA [United States Anti-Doping Agency] policy began. They told me that Brock would be tested when I accepted the fight, but he appears all pumped up. Later, I find out that he failed the test after the pay-per-view had already been sold.

These guys are filling their pockets with our blood. I mean, they deserve to be paid, no doubt. They transformed the UFC from what it was to what it is today. But most of the guys who fight don't get paid anything or don't get any benefits.

The whole point of these four-month tests should be to ensure that no one shows up doped up to the lungs and beats up the guys who are clean. I'm clean and have been tested this entire time. For the fighters reading this, I want them to contact me on my Facebook page so we can get things started. I won’t name any names until everything is resolved, but get in touch with me and let’s make it happen.”
