This weekend, the UFC is Brisbane, Australia for UFC Fight Night 33. This card is stacked with exciting matchups, headlined by a Heavyweight tilt between Mark Hunt and Antonio ‘Bigfoot’ Silva.

Hunt (9-8) is coming off a loss at UFC 160 to former Heavyweight champion, Junior Dos Santos, in a fun back and forth fight. Hunt showed unbelievable resiliency and heart eating power punches from the best striker in the division. Ultimately, he succumbed to an incredible spinning heel kick KO from JDS. Before that loss, Hunt was on four fight win streak with 3 wins by TKO/KO.

Silva (18-5) is also coming off a loss at UFC 160. In his rematch with Heavyweight champion, Cain Velasquez, Silva was once again dominated by Cain en route to a TKO loss. Before that fight, Silva had an awe-inspiring comeback KO over Alistair Overeem to earn his shot at the title.

Today, I compile and breakdown some GIFs of the two main eventers, previewing their battle on Friday night.

Mark Hunt

Hunt is a fantastic striker. After a successful K1 career, Hunt decided to move into MMA full time, where his elite striking has made the difference in most of his fights. In the GIF above you see Mark Hunt’s patented counter left hook. Hunt’s left hook is easily his best strike, and it packs a lot of power. As Cheick Kongo rushes in, he feints a body kick and attacks with a straight right. Hunt does not take the bait, and instead cracks Kongo with a counter left hook.

While Hunt is a great counter striker, he is also great moving forward. Hunt has power in both hands, but his left hook is the most devastating. In the GIF above, Hunt attacks the much taller Stefan Struve with a big overhand right and a few short hooks. As Struve backs up with his hands down, Hunt leaps forward with his power left hook that takes Struve out. This was another patented Mark Hunt walk off KO that left Struve’s jaw split in two.

Hunt is deceptively quick for his size and build. Junior Dos Santos, widely considered to be the best striker in the division, is known for his speed and power at Heavyweight. In the GIF above, JDS moves in for a straight left, but Hunt is quicker to the punch. As JDS moves in, Hunt staggers him with a check left hook. Hunt should be the quicker striker come Saturday night.

Antonio Silva

Antonio Silva is best when he is on the attack, but he has difficulty dealing with fighters that are faster strikers than him. In the GIF above, Cain Velasquez cracks Silva with a 1-2 as Silva looks for a big uppercut. Of course, this is not to compare Mark Hunt with Cain Velasquez, but Hunt’s speed could spell problems for ‘Bigfoot’.

Antonio Silva is a very big man, and not someone you want to be under while he is raining down ground and pound; just ask Mike Kyle or Fedor Emelianenko. In the GIF above, Silva mounts Fedor and rains down thunderous blows. Silva is a savvy grappler for his size, and is a black belt in BJJ. Hunt’s glaring weakness is his ground game, especially off his back. Expect Silva to attempt to get this fight to the mat and ground and pound Hunt for the victory.

As mentioned previously, Silva is best when he is pushing the pace and attacking. When he does attack, he could leave openings for Hunt to counter, but sometimes his onslaught can be too much for his opponent to overcome. In the GIF above, Silva rocks Alistair Overeem with an uppercut, a head kick, and a bevvy of powerful strikes. Overeem is too hurt to counter any of the punches, and ultimately is knocked out with a violent flurry in one of the most memorable KO’s in recent history.

Final thoughts: Both men have immense power in both hands and feet. Hunt should have the edge in speed and technical striking, while Silva will definitely have the edge on the mat. In the end, both men’s chins will have to hold up from the inevitable power shots. Hunt’s game plan will likely be countering Silva while he is attacking. Silva will likely look to get the fight to the mat and fish for a submission or ground and pound to victory.
