– Mark Hunt returns to Submission Radio to talk about his fight against Frank Mir at UFC Fight Night Brisbane, if he has enough time to get into shape, constantly improving at the age of 41, the comparisons to Mir and both of their career resurgences, Frank’s improved striking and recent KO victories, if Frank’s striking will be a threat to him at all, how he feels about the threat of Frank’s ground game, how many fights he’d like to have in 2016 and how soon he envisions another title shot, who deserves the next title shot out of Stipe Miocic and Alistair Overeem, rematches and avenging all of his UFC losses, his favourite Dragon Ball Z character, favourite meal, gaming, his number 1 fan Hassy, thoughts on Jon Jones coming to Heavyweight and much more.
