    Mark Hunt at Heavyweight

    yeah i know Mark Hunt is a K-1 Fighter but this guy has one of the best chins out there.. I was just curious if Mark made the jump from K-1 to Boxing, how would he confer to todays heavyweights? He has good power, good technique and a great chin... he is just a little on the slow side... what do you guys think?

    He'd probably be decapitated in the first round by the first guy he fought that had a pulse.

        I don't think that he would get knocked out, but he is not busy enough or fundamentaly sound enough to go 12 hard rounds with someone who knows about his power and will try to stay away from it.

        But it would be fun to watch him bomb out some of the C level competition on a ShoBox or FNF.

          Too late for him to turn to Boxing. Maybe he would have done good but changing sports at this stage would not be good. The guy is very strong but he needs to kick to be himself.

            yeah i agree... its too late for him to convert to boxing... and i also think he cant go 12 hard rounds with todays heavyweights... but i would love to see him **** with Bowe or even Evander at this point..

              he has power and a damn good chin but, being that fat only works in a 3 round fight, not a 12 round fight, he could maybe have been something if he had chosen boxing.

                He'd get his ass killed in boxing. He's not a boxer, so you shouldn't expect anything less. They ****ed Gary Goodridge when they fought. Though I don't really care, just saying fact.

                Mark Hunt would get knocked out by Chris Byrd. He may be tough, but he doesn't have that kind of stamina or pace. And he doesn't have boxing technique really. And he's fat, so anybody could work his body. Not like he'd be able to block that well.

                Same time, if he fought a boxer in K-1, it wouldn't be surprising if he won there.

                Oh and I've seen that Bob Sapp fight about 3 times now. OMG any boxer would beat the **** out of him. He's nothing. He struggles with light heavyweights and backs up from their power. Imagine what a heavyweight boxer would do. Especially Tyson. LMAO, I almost hope they have an exhibition.

                    great chin and power, but like all said he couldnt go for more than 3 rounds. after only 1minute fighting he is tired and slow down until the next first minute of next round. he is kind of like old foreman.
