Fighting inside the Octagon for the first time since December 2011, and looking for his first win since July 2010, Lesnar enters Saturday’s fight against Mark Hunt as an underdog.

But who cares?

Lesnar was a massive draw–literally–during his days in the UFC. One of the most physically gifted athletes the sports world has ever seen, the controversial big man showcased a rare amalgam of size, agility and crushing power. Even if he’s not expected to win, he’s a sight to behold every time he steps inside the Octagon. And the fact he’s been away for nearly five years only adds to the allure.

Moreover, a fight against Hunt is compelling, as it features two contrasting fight styles.

Lesnar, a former D-1 wrestling champ, wants to get the fight to the ground. He averaged 3.87 takedowns per fight during his first stint with UFC, winning most of his fights via submission or ground-and-pound.

Hunt, on the other hand, is a knockout machine. Boasting the kind of power capable of flooring anyone with one punch, the Super Samoan has won six of his seven UFC fight via KO or TKO.

Whoever can dictate the pace of fight should walk away a winner, and it’s going to be a scintillating battle with explosive potential.
