TOKYO – Were it not for such things as medical suspensions and pre-booked fight
cards, Mark Hunt would fight at UFC 144 and one week later at UFC on FX
2.

“I’m a fighter, that’s what we do,” he told MMAjunkie.com. “If I could do both, I could hopefully try and ask
for the Aussie card.”

For now, Hunt will have to be satisfied with facing
Cheick Kongo at UFC 144, which takes place
Saturday at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. The bout is part of a
seven-fight main card that airs live on pay-per-view. Preliminary-card
fights air on FX and stream on Facebook.
