Ben Henderson: 'I 100 percent support Mark Hunt' in his attempt to unionize fighters

SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Former UFC lightweight champion Benson Henderson plies his trade in Bellator these days. But when UFC competitor Mark Hunt makes a ruckus, it reverberates around the sport.

Hunt has boisterously expressed his opinions after Brock Lesnar failed two drug tests following Lesnar's 200 win over Hunt. Among other things, Hunt has said he'll be the one to organize fighters into a union.

And Henderson, who has never been afraid to speak his mind, says he's on board with "The Super Samoan."

"I 100 percent support Mark Hunt, everything he's doing and talking about," Henderson told MMAFighting.
