5 UFC Fighters who had beef with Dana White

#5 Mark Hunt

The most famous fighter to be so outspoken against the UFC

It is wise to save the best for the last.

There is probably no man, dead or alive, who hates the UFC as an organisation more than Mark "The Super Samoan" Hunt.

A very accomplished and decorated kickboxer and a legendary Mixed martial artist, Mark Hunt, usually gave away the leverage to his opponents regarding steroid use. So much so that, at one point, he even exclaimed before his bout with Brock Lesnar that he doesn't mind Lesnar doping and added that he would still knock him out.

While we all saw how that strategy failed for Hunt, he has now adopted another strategy altogether, one that goes all in. Hunt noted that all three of his last three opponents have been potential doping violators and have had an unfair advantage against him.

An argument that is hard to deny but keeping in mind the attitude of Dana White regarding anyone who speaks out against his organisation, it was not going to be just a silly situation in the end. The matchmakers then ended up giving Alistair Overeem to Hunt.

Hunt now went the distance and threatened to sue Overeem personally if he was caught using banned substances. Hunt then went on to sue the UFC anyway, just weeks before his fight with Overeem and is now in limbo with the UFC.

Hunt has been extremely outspoken against the UFC on his social media, something that has made for a guilty pleasure among many fight fans. How the UFC chooses to deal with this outraged fighter would be an interesting development in the whole narrative.
