Mark Hunt was resilient, but Stipe Miocic was relentless.
Miocic methodically battered Hunt for the better part of five rounds in their headlining encounter at UFC Fight Night in Adelaide, Australia, on Saturday night. While Hunt had a few inspired moments of offense, the Kiwi’s most impressive attribute throughout the fight was his will. “The Super Samoan” finally succumbed to a barrage of ground-and-pound 2:47 into the fifth frame.
For Miocic, the lopsided victory was a strong recovery from a hard-fought loss to Junior dos Santos at UFC on Fox 13 this past December.
