Australian heavyweight Mark Hunt is ready to go to war with Brock Lesnar, Dana White and the UFC.
Yesterday the โSuper Samoanโ announced that he has filed a lawsuit against his opponent at UFC 200 Brock Lesnar, UFC boss Dana White and the organization stemming from Lesnarโs failed drug tests prior to their heavyweight bout.
I have filed a lawsuit against the UFC today.

Within the civil suit, Hunt alleges that the three parties engaged in racketeering, conspiracy and fraud while accusing the UFC of โaffirmatively circumvented and obstructed fair competition for their own benefit.โ
Hunt may have a case as well when you consider the special accommodations specifically to the testing windows given to Lesnar prior to the UFC 200 PPV. Itโs those types of oversights with doping that could end up sinking the UFC and MMA in general. Hunt brought it up before and makes a good point, imagine if Lesnar killed him in the octagon? Is that liability the UFC would be able to recover from given Lesnarโs previous positive drug tests? Fortunately we wonโt find out at least not in this case.
