|  Hunt: Overeem got caught cheating, everything he has done is now 'meaningless'
[CENTER] Hunt: Overeem got caught cheating, everything he has done is now 'meaningless' [/CENTE Quote: Quote: |
"I have no idea. I think maybe, they want to see a feel good story of the year. I think people like to see an underdog. I mean, I wasn't event wanted in the UFC and here we are talking about getting a title shot. I think people like the feel good story. No one's told me nothing. I'm always last to find out. I'm still looking to fight Struve, but if I get a title shot then that is better for me and that will be thanks to the 'Army of Doom.' It's not up to me but the chances are good. I think the 'Army of Doom' has been bombing Dana Whites twitter. But whatever happens, it is what it is. But I won't be disappointed and Struve is a tough opponent and I will be moving on and when it is my time to get a title shot, I will. You can say whatever you want, but the UFC, at the end of the day they are going to do what they want, it's their call."
| On how he matches up against "Cigano:"
Quote: |
"I match up good against anyone so I do match up against him. It's good to be underestimated and be the underdog, it's great, it gives me more drive and more fire. When someone tells you can't beat anyone or are not good enough, I get motivated."
| When the topic of Alistair Overeem and PED's in MMA in particular came up, a normally quiet and reserved Hunt, seemed to get a little heated:
Quote: |
"Drugs in all sports is a big problem. It's a cutthroat business, people take this shit just to get by. I don't use that shit, but when Alistair takes that shit or whoever takes it they just screw themselves out. Like when Barnett screwed himself out of the fight with Fedor. But who am I too judge anybody. I don't take that shit and no one else should. If they do, that's on them, Alistair is now in court, and everything that Alistair has done is meaningless now. At the end of the day he just got caught cheating, so what's the deal? I lost to him, so did he use that shit when I was fighting him? That's on him, he has to live with that shit not me. It's not my position to judge him, he has to look himself in the mirror. At the end of the day, I don't give a crap who's taking what. The steroids are not going to help them when I hit them. Take as much as you like, I don't care."

| That's the more important part of the interview. The headline makes it look like Hunt is not the easy-going guy that he is.

What exactly has Overeem done though? His only notable wins are over Lesnar and Werdum.........

Fact is that Overeem pursued a K-1 career as a challenge and succeeded in winning the Grand Prix which is more than 99.9999% of the planet could do.
