Knockout artist Mark Hunt could make his return to combat sports in the boxing ring.
Australian rugby player turned boxer Paul Gallen confirmed to 2GB Radio he’s agreed to fight Hunt in the squared circle after a previous round of negotiations went south. The two are expected to meet on Oct. 30 or 31 of this year at a location to be determined.
A person with knowledge of the booking confirmed the pending matchup to MMA Fighting and said the host city and venue remains the last hurdle to clear before the fight is made official.
