Mark Hunt has become a legendary figure in the mixed martial arts world for his toughness.
Saturday night, the 41-year-old Samoan proved to be too tough for his own good.
Hunt absorbed a brutal beating from Stipe Miocic in the main event of UFC Fight Night 65 in Adelaide, Australia.
Miocic (13-2) set a UFC record in landing 361 strikes, and outstruck Hunt 361-46, but referee John Sharp inexplicably let Hunt continue far longer than necessary before finally waving off the fight at 2:47 of the final round.
Miocic set the tone for the fight over the first two rounds, as he picked his spots in the standup while also respecting Hunt's knockout power.
