Mark Hunt is scheduled to fight Junior Dos Santos, May 25th in Las Vegas, NV. The heavyweight, who lives in New Zealand, may now have put the bout in jeopardy:

Well thanks to a idiot friend of mine I did get arrested. Denied again at airport I'm never helping anymore dikhead mates. This is wat happens wen u have friends that are dikheads the last fukn time I help these mother fkn trouble makers.

He's still tweeting (see his timeline here), so that's a good sign.

With fight night just over two weeks away, Hunt says he was arrested in New Zealand thanks to some "!!head" friends he was apparently trying to help. In addition, his visa was denied for his outbound flight to "Sin City," which means he's currently stranded overseas.

Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): How do you see yourself evolving as a coach in this next year?

Duane Ludwig: As far as me evolving as a coach, it's gonna happen. I'm always studying film, looking at fights from all aspects. When I watch a fight, I watch it from A's corner and then I watch it from B's corner. Even with that, I look at the fight again and I alter my own consciousness and I watch the fights again just to make sure, just to get some different looks on things. I actually have another guy in Colorado who reviews film for me as well. From one fight in particular, I get a lot of looks. I watch it multiple times from different stages of consciousness and I have other people watching it. I put more research into fighting than anybody does, more effort into this game than people are aware of, that's for sure.

Brian Hemminger (MMAmania.com): What do you mean by altered state of consciousness?

Duane Ludwig: It's freakin legal. Let me address this issue. When I watch film, I watch film normal how I am now. Then I watch film when I'm high on marijuana. I also watch the film again when I have Alpha Brain in my system. I watch film from three different states of consciousness just to get different looks at things. Just to see if maybe I missed a step or a nice little detail just to get different looks on things. I take this serious as hell. So serious that, if the guys aren't making strides, I personally get my feelings hurt because I want them to succeed so much. I feel it, man. "This could be better. Take a step here, a two step there." I care for these fukking guys that's for sure.

Is Reem healed up yet? Might as well give Roy a call but 2 weeks is short notice to take on Junior if Mark doesn't make it.

Jones elbows are the best part of his striking he needs to rethink that cause IMO it wouldn't be competitive.

 

[PHamm]

Sucks about Carwin. Was a fun fighter to watch but he got started way too late and his body broke down

and im sure her was on hgh and trt too. he knew he wouldn't be able to beat the current testing standards, so he retired #coward

Usually when you hear about Jones' being arrogant it's just cacs overreacting but that was truly a ridiculous and arrogant comment. Floyd would completely embarrass him and probably knock him out.

if im money mayweather why not do a 5 round exhibition kinda like rocky vs thunder lips

Jones.... would def need someone to train him on how to cheat with the blocking and locking moves to have a chance.. I don't think he would get knocked out right away... Jon usually has to look out for kicks, punches, bows, takedowns--- with this, he can easy train to watch out for two fist, plus most non boxing martial artist can take full advantage of someone throwing a hook... even a fast strong person - I know that I can.

edit: i know i can take advantage of some boxing punches, not fight Floyd - Floyd would probably leave me in a vegetated state.

There are no weed head champions.

Ummmm.. No.. Floyd is 140lbs soaking wet.. Jones walks around probably 220+lbs and has a wingspan of a 7 footer. Jones is NOT a better boxer but it doesn't matter with his size, athleticism and fight experience. If they were the same size, then obviously Floyd would tool him but they're not.
